Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

On top of performing well in its overall grade, this facility received even higher grades in the area of short-term care. It received one of our highest grades in that category with an A-. In computing our short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We weren't able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Finally, we looked at the number of patients that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an B+. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. There are quite a few factors included in this category. Most of the subcategories reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' 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

Our final area is long-term care, where we gave this facility a grade of B- in this area. In the category of long-term care, we look at the quantity of services offered by a facility, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. This nursing home also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
