Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A. Few facilities performed better in this category. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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 always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also was awarded a favorable grade in our long-term care category. We gave this nursing home a better than average grade of B in this area. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 83.532936 percent of its patients. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. Nursing scores are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, our nursing scores also consider quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we assessed is short-term care, which is this nursing home's weakest category. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F for this category, which is obviously very disappointing. Our short-term care scores are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Given its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this place was well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the measures we looked at. The last item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 3.6 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
