Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While we were fairly low on this facility overall, we awarded it an A- for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the nursing home's overall score. 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. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even with this deficiency, this was still a relatively positive report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, we gave this nursing home a grade of B in our long-term care category. This is one of our more favorable scores. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are kept in good health. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 96.09375 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. In calculating our nursing grades, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we scored was short-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in that category. In computing these short-term care scores, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to formulate a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
