Facility Inspections

Grade: A

We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility really outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best scores in that category with an A. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient safety or health. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, we also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was given impressive short-term care marks in this assessment. We awarded them one of our more favorable grades in that area, with a grade of B. This proved to be the nursing home's second best score. In crafting our short-term care scores, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. It does not look like this facility provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third category we analyzed is long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. We were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated 78.2194 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be several points below average. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The final category we assessed is nursing, is this facility's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a D in this category. This is one of just a couple of weak links in an otherwise impressive report card. When computing a facility's nursing rating, we consider the number of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this place also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
