Facility Inspections

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.

Nurse Quality

This facility received high grades in the area of nursing as well. In fact, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. Nursing scores are mostly based on the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility also received an impressive short-term care grade. Indeed, we gave it an above average grade of B+ in this category. Our short-term care ratings are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 4.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

The last area we rated is long-term care. In this area, we gave this nursing home an acceptable grade of B-. This actually was this facility's least impressive area. Our long-term care ratings are more meaningful for those requiring more traditional services associated with activities of daily living. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 93.70629 percent of its residents. This is a few points lower than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
