Facility Inspections

Grade: A

This facility earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its excellent inspection reports in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. This place received 11 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The second highest area we awarded this facility in any category came in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-. Short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The question is whether this adversely impacted quality of care. The final measure we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of nursing care, with a grade of C. The nursing grade weighs a handful of factors, most of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a somewhat concerning figure as it is well below the national average. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses aids to assist its patients.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we assessed is long-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. We gave this facility a grade of D in this area. For patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. After assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is better than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
