Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home's best category grade came in long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B+. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure patients are well cared for. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 97.540985 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is far higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an B+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility was awarded its next best category score in the area of short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a C in this category, which is a respectable score. In our short-term care assessment, we endeavor to create a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's scope 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. The last statistic we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The final category we graded was nursing. We gave it a grade of C in that category. This is a perfectly acceptable grade in this category. There are a host of subcategories included in this area. Many of these criteria relate to staffing levels. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, our nursing ratings also consider some quality-focused metrics. We especially look at the percent of patients who suffered pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these metrics are indicators of the quality of nursing care, since superior care tends to reduce these issues.
