Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with an A-. This is a notably better grade than the place's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. While this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that category, which is one of our better scores. Nursing grades are based in large part on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, we were not able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.9 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our final area is long-term care, where we awarded this facility a C in this category. Our long-term care grades are more critical for patients requiring more traditional assistance related to personal care. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is better than most nursing homes. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
