Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. This grade is far better than its overall rating. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In that area, we gave this nursing home an C. When calculating our nursing grades, we look at both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next category we analyzed is long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a solid grade of C. Long-term care grades are pivotal for prospective residents requiring personal care. After we finished assessing the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 99.67742 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next area we looked at is short-term care, which ended up being a weak spot for this nursing home. We awarded this facility a grade of just D in the area of short-term care. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. With its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the measures we looked at. The final item we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this facility's short-term care score.
