Long-term Care Quality

This nursing home's next most favorable area was its long-term care score, where it received a B-. Long-term care grades are generally used to judge a nursing home's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services offered by a rehabilitation facility. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Turning to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing grade. In fact, we gave this nursing home an D. Our nursing grade looks at the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This facility provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Moving on to our final area, we awarded this facility a grade of D for our short-term care category. This was the nursing home's least impressive category score. Our short-term care scores are important for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
