Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home earned an inspection score which is stronger than its overall rating. Inspection scores are based on a nursing home's recent health inspections. We awarded this facility an above average grade of B+ in this area. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically avoided the most 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. Based on this, we still had a generally favorable view of this facility's recent inspections.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home was given its second best category grade in the area of short-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in this area, which is an acceptable grade. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is still important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.9 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. Our nursing rating assesses quite a few datapoints, however, the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, although this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed well in this area.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the last category, we gave this nursing home a grade of D for the area of long-term care. This was the nursing home's worst category grade. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.21875 percent of its residents, which is better than most nursing homes. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
