Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving a strong overall rating, this nursing home received an A+ inspection rating. This is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the highest complements we can offer a facility. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Among this facility's other strengths is its top-shelf long-term care score. We gave them one of our more favorable grades in that area, with a score of A. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 98.156685 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a life or death health condition for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home does not leave this to chance. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next highest grade we gave this nursing home came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. This wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, but a grade in this range is not the end of the world. Our nursing score weighs several factors. The most heavily weighted variable is the amount of time nurses spent with residents. This nursing home averages just 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, while this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this subcategory.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we scored was short-term care. We gave this facility a decent grade in this category, with a grade of C. While this wasn't as favorable as several of this facility's other grades, it is still not a bad grade. In computing our short-term care grades, we scrutinize the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This area is often a reliable assessment of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
