Facility Inspections
Although we did not rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to point out its relatively solid inspections in recent years. We gave it a respectable grade of B in this area, which was much better than its overall score. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid nursing homes that have a long list of deficiencies. This place was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best category came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B-. Our short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. In fact, we found that it outperformed the majority of nursing homes in the country with 54 percent of its patients returning home. This is a higher rate than most nursing homes.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing rating assesses many datapoints, however, the main consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. According to its staffing data, this place provided an average of 4.2 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which was above average. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as minimizing major falls. This facility performed admirably in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we graded was long-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in this area. In a long-term care environment, the primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 95.47511 percent of its patients, which is more than the average nursing home. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. While it had 1.89 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was not bad since it had some more complex patients.
