Nurse Quality

Grade: B

We would like to point out that this nursing home's nursing rating exceeded its overall grade. This facility earned a B in this category, which is one of our better grades. Our nursing score assesses the facility's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with residents. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility 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.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this nursing home a grade of B- for our inspections rating. This is a very respectable nursing score. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. While this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third category we graded is short-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C. In computing our short-term care grades, we size up a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This score is more often than not a fair measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Turning to our fourth category, this nursing home received a respectable long-term care grade of C. Our long-term care grade is generally used to gauge a facility's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services provided by a rehabilitation facility. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Fortunately, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. This place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
