Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we gave this facility an A- for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. Inspection scores are based on items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area 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. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Our nursing score is primarily associated with the facility's nurse staffing. This facility provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure which is well below the national average. Lastly, while this facility got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next highest area is short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a C. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. We found that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 4.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually well below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to our next area, we awarded this nursing home a D in the area of long-term care. This was the nursing home's weakest category grade. Nursing homes that do not fare well in this category typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home gave the vaccine to just 84.17266 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
