Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This facility earned an inspection score which is better than its overall grade. Inspection ratings are tied to the facility's recent government inspections. We awarded this nursing home a very solid grade of B+ in this category. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this area usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this facility's more favorable category grades came in the category of long-term care. This turned out to be its second best category. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B-. In calculating our long-term care grades, we analyze the assistance with daily living offered to a nursing home's patients. Once we assessed the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinated 98.38337 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we graded is short-term care, where this facility was given a C in this category. Short-term care ratings are critical for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. The final measure we looked at in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Turning to our next area, this facility was awarded a grade of C for nursing, which is generally a decent rating. We looked at the levels of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours the nurses spent with residents, in computing our grade in this area. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, our nursing scores also consider quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its patients.
