Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection grade. In fact, its inspection score was far superior to its overall score. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A-. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was given a favorable score in our short-term care category. We gave this facility a better than average grade of B in that area. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other licensed professionals. This area is generally a reliable measure of a facility's rehabilitation services. It does not appear that this nursing home submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final measure we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of C in this category. We assessed the licensure of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the number of hours the nurses were with patients, in calculating our score in this category. This facility averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, which is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics. While this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed well in this metric. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning a resident even once per day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Turning to the next category, this nursing home received a grade of C for long-term care, which we consider to be a decent rating. For prospective patients seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are an important measure. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 97.6 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
