Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To pair with its strong overall performance, we awarded this facility an A- for the area of inspections. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another quality feature for this facility is that it was given an above average long-term care grade. Indeed, this ended up being its second best category grade. In this category, we gave this nursing home a B+. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 85.906044 percent of its patients. This is a few points less than we were hoping for but still a decent figure. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility was awarded a favorable short-term care score as well. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that category with a score of B+. In calculating our short-term care grades, we analyze a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This score is more often than not a solid measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We weren't able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final statistic we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 6.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The last category we analyzed is nursing. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an impressive grade of B. The nursing grade weighs a handful of subcategories, most of which are associated with nursing hours. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by having a protocol of turning residents at least once a day.
