Facility Inspections

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a strong facility is that it earned an impressive inspection rating. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category. In that area, we awarded this facility an A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Our nursing rating is mostly associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 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 facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next highest category was its long-term care score, where it received a grade of B-. Long-term care scores are essential for patients in need of personal care. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.4302 percent of its patients. This place keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next category we looked at was short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a C in this category. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The final item we considered in this area is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
