Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Although we were not complementary of this facility's overall grade, it actually received an impressive nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B in this area. In calculating our nursing grades, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 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 facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

We actually gave this facility a very solid score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we gave it a B- in this category. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home was given its next highest category grade in the area of long-term care. We gave this facility a C in this area, which is a reasonably acceptable grade. In calculating these long-term care grades, we assess the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinated 94.35898 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we analyzed is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a rock bottom grade in this category as well. We gave it an F for this area, which is obviously somewhat alarming. In computing our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to create a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Considering its weak rating in this category, we were not surprised to discover that this facility provides substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
