Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with its favorable overall score, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Among its many impressive grades, this nursing home received an excellent nursing grade. In fact, we gave it a grade of B in that area. Nursing ratings are largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facilities next most favorable category is short-term care. We awarded it a B- in this category. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this category. In computing these short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to formulate a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We were not able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 4.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to the last area, this facility was given a C in long-term care, which is generally a decent score. In computing our long-term care grades, we assess the personal care received by the nursing home's patients. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this facility vaccinated a relatively low 83.42857 percent of its patients, which is not a very encouraging sign. On a more positive note, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
