Facility Inspections

In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Another one of this nursing home's more favorable category scores came in the area of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. It actually outperformed most nursing homes in this area. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Turning to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing grade. In fact, we gave this facility an D. Nursing grades are largely associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. With just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility's weakest area was short-term care, which is the final category we looked at. In this category, we awarded this facility a grade of D. In our short-term care category, we try to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze a nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This was not a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
