Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility truly excelled in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A-. Not many facilities performed better in this area. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 95.13514 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also was given a favorable short-term care score. In fact, we gave it an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our short-term care ratings are considered to be most important for patients requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Switching gears to the last area, this nursing home was awarded a respectable nursing score. Although this was not nearly as elite as a few of its other scores, this is really nothing to be ashamed of. We assessed the levels of nurses working for the facility, as well as the quantity of hours those nurses worked with residents, in calculating our rating in this area. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a low total compared to most facilities. Lastly, nursing ratings also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.
