Facility Inspections
A+
Historical
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in this area with a grade of A+. Our inspection scores are tied to several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
B
Historical
Another one of this facility's more favorable category grades was in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this category. For patients in need of a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 93.05556 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be a few points below what we expected but still a decent figure. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
B-
Historical
We also awarded this facility a respectable score in the area of short-term care, with a grade of B-. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. This place provided more registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. The final measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.
Nurse Quality
D
Historical
The next category we assessed is nursing, turned out to be this facility's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this area. This really is one of the few weak points on a quality report card. Our nursing score includes many factors, however, the most important one is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. Despite its poor nursing grade, this facility provided an average of 6.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Roughly one fourth of this care came from registered nurses, which are highly trained nurses. Both of these figures are higher than average, so clearly quantity of care was not its problem. Despite performing well in terms of nursing hours, this place was a bit less impressive in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and found that this place was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in this statistic. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, this statistic pulled down this facility's nursing grade substantially.
