Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility really excelled at short-term care, with an A in this category. This really propped up its overall score. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 6.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also received a strong grade in our nursing category. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing score is mostly based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. 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 place 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 generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

This facility's inspection rating was yet another category grade that was superior to the nursing home's overall grade. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a B. Inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category usually have few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home's least impressive area was long-term care, which is the final area we looked at. Sadly, it received an abysmal F in this category. Despite a few acceptable scores in other categories, this score is still concerning so we would like to to make a note of it. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means the nursing home didn't perform well in our quality measures relating to resident care. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We discovered that this facility administered the vaccine to a relatively low 84.9315 percent of its residents, which is a bit of a concern. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
