Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this facility's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category tend to have few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple relatively minor dings aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we gave this facility a grade of B in our short-term care category. This is one of our better scores. In our short-term care category, we seek to create a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. 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, we were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facilities third most favorable area is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this area. In our long-term care assessment, we look at the quantity of services provided by a nursing home, as well as a few quality datapoints. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is better than most nursing homes. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The last area we looked at was nursing, ended up being this facility's worst category. We awarded this nursing home a D in this category. This really was one of the few weak links on a quality profile. Our nursing score focuses on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. In addition to receiving below average scores for nursing hours, this facility was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in determining our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of patients experiencing pressure ulcers and found this nursing home was at roughly 1.5 times the national average in this statistic. This is a bad sign when you consider that many pressure ulcers are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, this statistic really pulled down this facility's nursing grade significantly.
