Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this facility's overall grade was decent, 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. Our inspection ratings are tied to items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This place received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to resident health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, we gave this facility a B+ in our long-term care category. This happens to be one of our more favorable grades. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 97.23127 percent of its residents, which is significantly higher 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. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We also awarded this nursing home a middle of the pack grade in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a C. In crafting our short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We weren't able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this nursing home. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The final category we graded was nursing. We awarded this facility a grade of D for nursing, leaving this as the nursing home's least impressive category grade. In determining our nursing ratings, we look at both staffing levels and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. In addition to receiving below average marks for total nursing hours, this facility was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of patients suffering pressure ulcers and found this nursing home was at approximately 1.5 times the national average in this metric.
