Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this nursing home really excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A-. Few nursing homes fared better in this category. The nursing grade weighs many components, many of which are based on nursing hours. This nursing home provides 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 facility 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 frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also awarded this nursing home a score of A- for our short-term care score. Our short-term care grade is generally used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an impressive grade of B+. Few facilities performed better in this area. Inspection scores are tied to several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this category typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final category we looked at is long-term care. In this category, we awarded this facility an acceptable grade of B-. This is this facility's worst category. In calculating our long-term care grades, we assess the personal care received by the facility's residents. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated only 69.047615 percent of its residents against pneumonia. On a more positive note, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
