Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

We would like to point out that this facility's inspection score exceeded its overall grade. This facility earned a B+ in this category, which is a quality score. Our inspection grades are tied to many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B+. Few places performed better in this category. Nursing ratings are mostly associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures 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: B-minus

This nursing home's next best category is long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B-. In the area of long-term care, we focus more on the quantity of services offered by a facility, rather than more sophisticated services. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. This place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last category we rated is short-term care, is this facility's worst area. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in that category. This really is one of the couple of weak links in an otherwise strong profile. Our short-term care ratings are probably most important for individuals needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires additional skilled nursing services. This means not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 3.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most facilities, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
