Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, this facility also received first-rate government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our higher scores in that category, with an A-. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In fact, nursing turned out to be its second best category grade. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of A-. There are several criteria included in this area. Many of the criteria are tied to nurse staffing. This facility provided 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility 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

Turning to our next category, this facility also received a grade of B for its short-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this category. Short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 4.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we analyzed is long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a B- for this area. For prospective patients seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 98.82904 percent of its residents, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
