Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being a strong facility overall, it also earned A+ inspections in recent years. Its inspections were nearly perfect. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility was awarded high scores in the category of short-term care as well. Indeed, it received one of our most superb grades in that area with a score of A-. Our short-term care grades are critical for patients in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes additional skilled nursing. This means a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility was awarded a strong long-term care grade as well. We gave it one of our higher grades in that area with a grade of B. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 97.68421 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Switching gears to our last area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D for our nursing category. This was the nursing home's weakest category score. However, we wouldn't focus exclusively one weak area. Our nursing rating looks at the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of training of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. With only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were well below the national average. While this nursing home didn't excel in the area of nursing hours, it surprised us in a few of the quality-based metrics in the nursing category, such as avoiding major falls. This facility was better than average in this metric, which is one redeeming quality we found in this category.
