Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility's best category score came in nursing. In this area, we gave this nursing home a B+. It outpaced most nursing homes in this category. There are a host of criteria included in this grade. Most of these datapoints relate to nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also performed well in the area of inspections. It received one of our highest scores in that category with an B+. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's more favorable category scores was in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B. Short-term care scores are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we graded was long-term care. It received a lowly F for this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is certainly a significant concern. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 94.69026 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
