Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with its favorable overall grade, we gave this place an A+ for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite minor. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that the government inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to be an immediate risk to patient health or safety. A couple minor dings aren't the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of short-term care. We gave them one of our better grades in that area, with a grade of B. Our short-term care grades are thought to be more important for patients needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category is long-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a B-. Our long-term care grades are pivotal for people seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.57447 percent of its residents, which is more than the average nursing home. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to our fourth area, we awarded this nursing home a D for our nursing category. This is the nursing home's worst category grade. Naturally, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile to some degree. The nursing grade weighs numerous data points. The most heavily weighted one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This nursing home provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Although this nursing home's nursing hours were below average, it actually surprised us in a few of the qualitative statistics in this category. In particular, we were pleased to see that its residents appear to be sustaining fewer pressure ulcers than most nursing homes.
