Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The main reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher scores in that category, with an A. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we gave this nursing home a B in our short-term care category. This is one of our higher grades. In determining our short-term care grades, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to create a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. It does not look like this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 4.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. When determining our nursing ratings, we factor in both nursing hours and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures. While this place got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of these quality measures. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this metric. This is typically a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as having a protocol of moving a patient at least once a day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's least impressive category is long-term care, which is the final area we analyzed. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a D. For residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. After we finished looking at the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
