Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's second best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. In determining our nursing ratings, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next most favorable area ended up being long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of C. Our long-term care ratings are crucial for prospective residents in need of non-healthcare services such as personal care. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinated 99.631 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last category we rated was short-term care. For that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. Our short-term care scores are crucial for residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
