Facility Inspections

Grade: A

We want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home really outperformed its overall grade in the category of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our highest scores in this category with an A. Inspection grades are based on several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this nursing home's more respectable category grades came in the area of short-term care. This wound up being its second best category. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B-. In our short-term care category, we strive to craft a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than a typical facility. The final metric we considered in this area is the number of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing grade. We gave this nursing home an D. There are many subcategories within this category. Many of the criteria reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. With only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, this facility's nurse staffing levels were well below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last category we assessed is long-term care. It received an F for this area, which is a bottom of the barrel score. This is obviously a major concern. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. Unfortunately, this facility vaccinated a relatively low 62.81407 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
