Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to receiving a great overall score, this nursing home also received first-rate inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher grades in this area, with an A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be quite minor. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We also awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our short-term care score. In computing our short-term care grades, we size up a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This score is typically a fair measure of a nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of nursing care. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. In calculating our nursing scores, we analyze both nursing hours and the training levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's least impressive area is long-term care, which is the last area we assessed. For this category, we gave this nursing home an D. We wanted to point out this possible weak spot, however, you shouldn't dwell on a single weak category either. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities offer. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 90.458015 percent of its residents. This is significantly lower than what we expected. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
