Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A- for our inspections rating. Our inspection grades account for several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider 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 3 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: B-plus

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a score of B+ for its long-term care rating. This is a well above average grade in this area. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 91.90283 percent of its residents. This is slightly less than we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B in this area. Our nursing score assesses the facility's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This facility provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by having a system of moving a resident even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last area we looked at was short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. We were not able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this place. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
