Nurse Quality

Grade: A

On top of being a quality nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of nursing, where it received an A. There are a host of criteria included in this grade. Many of these subcategories reflect staffing levels. This nursing home averages 0 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 frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also was awarded a strong short-term care grade. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this category. In forming these short-term care grades, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to create a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The last item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Adding to its strong resume, this facility earned a grade of B for its inspections rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this category generally have very 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: C

The last area we graded is long-term care. We awarded this nursing home a C in this category. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care ratings. Once we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinates 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. This facility 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 number.
