Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this facility's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. This nursing home was hit with 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to resident health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, we also wanted to point out that this facility was awarded strong long-term care marks in this assessment. We gave them one of our higher grades in this area, with a grade of B+. This turned out to be the facility's second strongest grade. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 89.411766 percent of its patients. This is somewhat less than we anticipated. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next category we analyzed was short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a decent grade of C. Our short-term care scores are vital for individuals requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. We weren't able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The last metric we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Switching gears to the final area, this facility received a C in nursing, which we consider to be a decent rating. Our nursing rating considers a variety of data points. The most heavily weighted variable is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it scored well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the number of hours of care provided.
