Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

We gave this nursing home one of our better scores in nursing, with an A-. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Our nursing grade is primarily based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home Washington in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning a resident at least once a day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's second highest area came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a B-. Our short-term care ratings are likely most critical for individuals requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home received a solid inspection report this year as well, with few dings from the applicable government inspectors. As a result, it earned one of our better grades in that category with a score of B-. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 13 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: D

The final area we analyzed was long-term care, ended up being this facility's least impressive area. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this category. If you are looking for services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care scores. After considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 97.59615 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
