Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's best category is its inspection score, where it received a B-. Inspection grades are based on a place's government inspections. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining 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. Based on this, we had a generally favorable view of this nursing home's inspections.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's second best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. Nursing scores are largely associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The third highest area we awarded this nursing home in any category came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-. Long-term care grades assess a facility's personal care rather than the skilled therapy and healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home provided the vaccine to just 77.04918 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our final category is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a grade of C in that category. In our short-term care score, we strive to craft a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. It supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.7 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
