Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we didn't grade this nursing home favorably overall, we actually gave it an excellent grade in the area of inspections, where it earned an A-. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid places that had too many severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 12 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's next highest category was long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a C. Our long-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of care. This includes a vast spectrum of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.8604 percent of its residents. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of C. When determining a facility's nursing grade, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are caring for residents and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides only 0.6 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure as it is well below average. Finally, although this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of our quality-based measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we graded is short-term care. This facility received a rock bottom grade of F in this area. In crafting our short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. As you might expect, we discovered that this place offers far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average nursing home. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
