Nurse Quality
While we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall grade, it did receive a respectable nursing grade of C. There are several subcategories within this category. Most of the factors reflect the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses aids to assist its patients.
Long-term Care Quality
The next highest category we gave this nursing home in any category came in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a C. Our long-term care grade is often used to score a facility's performance as a traditional nursing home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a skilled nursing facility. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 97.04641 percent of its patients, which is better than most nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
