Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. While this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat 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: A-minus

Adding to this nursing home's list of strengths, it also was awarded a first-rate long-term care grade. We gave them a strong strong of A- in this area. When facilities receive this type of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 97.60274 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is much higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, 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 received a strong short-term care grade as well. We awarded it one of our better scores in that category with a score of B+. Our short-term care scores are presumably most critical for residents requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 5.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The final category we looked at turned out to be this facility's poorest area. However, even in its weakest link we still gave it a respectable grade of C for nursing. There are quite a few data points included in this grade. Many of these subcategories are tied to staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also baked a few quality measures into our nursing ratings. This facility was relatively weak in a few of the major areas we focus on, with below average scores for minimizing its patients' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are usually reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care offered.
