Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home received a nursing score which is stronger than its overall grade. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B in this area. Nursing scores are based in large part on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a middle of the pack grade in the category of short-term care, where it received a B-. Short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The tricky part is determining what bearing this had on the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 4.7 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

Next we looked at this nursing home's inspection rating This is based on the facility's recent government inspections. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. Our inspection scores are tied to items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. Unfortunately, this nursing home was assessed a category L deficiency, which was unexpected based on its inspection score. This is the worst possible category of deficiencies. This category indicates the government inspectors discovered a widespread deficiency putting patient safety or health in imminent danger. Even a single serious deficiency of this nature should be taken seriously. In fact, it may even be worth doing more research into this deficiency and steps taken by the nursing home to prevent similar episodes in the future.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next area we scored is long-term care, which ended up being this nursing home's least impressive category. We gave this nursing home a D in that category. For long-term care residents, the primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.63637 percent of its patients, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
