Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To pair with its decent overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A- for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another one of this nursing home's higher category scores came in the category of short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a B+. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. In our short-term care rating, we strive to create a sound gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze a nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final item we considered in this area is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B-. Our nursing grade is based on a number of datapoints. The most heavily weighted variable is the quantity of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home averages just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is well below average. Lastly, nursing ratings also consider quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses to assist its patients.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final category we analyzed was long-term care. We gave it a grade of C in that category. This is a fair grade in this area. Long-term care grades are used to score a nursing home's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services offered by a skilled nursing facility. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the average nursing home. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
