Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating. This grade is far more impressive than its overall score. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also performed favorably in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A-. Not many nursing homes performed more favorably in this area. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 96.15385 percent of its patients, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia tragically can be a life or death health condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances. Finally, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. With 1.79 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this place was close to average in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
This facilities next best category was short-term care. We gave it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road score in this area. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. One reason for this facility's strong score in this category is that it provides a greater volume of physical therapist hours to its residents than the average nursing home. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 39.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we scored was nursing, which was this facility's weakest category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in this category. Sadly, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile a bit. Our nursing rating is primarily based on a facility's nurse staffing. This place offered just 3.2 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. In addition to receiving below average marks for total nursing hours, this place was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in calculating our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of patients experiencing pressure ulcers and found this nursing home was at approximately 1.5 times the national average in this statistic.
