Facility Inspections

In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of A+. Few facilities performed better in this area. Our inspection ratings are based on items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this category have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we gave it a high-end long-term care score. In fact, we awarded this nursing home a score of A. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 87.1345 percent of its residents. This is slightly below what we anticipated. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to the category of short-term care, this facility was given just a D in that category. With our short-term care rating, we endeavor to craft a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we look at the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. It looks like this place was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The last item we considered in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 5 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Switching gears to our final category, we awarded this nursing home a D for nursing. This is the facility's weakest category grade. Of course, this score pulled down the facility's overall profile to a certain degree. The nursing grade assesses several factors, but the main one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is well below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
