Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home's long-term care rating outpaced its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for its long-term care score. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 93.451324 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be a few points lower than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Inspections is another area where this facility excelled. We gave this facility an B+ for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than its overall grade. Inspection ratings are tied to several datapoints 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 places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. In computing our nursing scores, we factor in both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This figure is significantly below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics. While this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this statistic. This can be an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning a resident more frequently.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last category we graded was short-term care. This nursing home was given a C in the category. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to score a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To offer highly rated rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to feature higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. We were not able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
