Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the reasons this place ended up being a great nursing home is that it received an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this very important area. Inspection ratings are tied to many datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that score well in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

To complement its strong performance in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Nursing ratings are primarily based on a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility is also above average in the category of short-term care, where it was awarded a grade of B+. It performed more favorably than most nursing homes in this category. Short-term care grades are typically used to gauge a facility's performance with rehabilitation To have highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to feature better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. We weren't able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the last area, this nursing home also was awarded a first-rate long-term care grade, with a grade of B+. This completed a first-rate report card. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 96.969696 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is more than most nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
