Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Among the reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it received a dominant short-term care grade. Indeed, short-term care turned out to be its second most impressive category grade. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of A-. In computing these short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 6.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this nursing home also was awarded favorable long-term care scores this year. Indeed, we gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Facilities that excel in this category tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.324326 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we analyzed is nursing, which was a weak spot for this facility. We awarded this facility a grade of D in our nursing category, rendering this the nursing home's least impressive grade. We would still suggest that you consider all of a facility's category grades. In computing a facility's nursing rating, we weigh the number of hours nurses are caring for patients as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This figure is significantly below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This facility fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
