In that category, we gave this facility a grade of A. Short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this nursing home provided information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

This nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. In determining a nursing home's nursing rating, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents as well as the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0 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 place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning a resident more often.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this nursing home a middle of the road grade in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-.

This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Finally, we also gave this facility a B- for our inspections category. This facility didn't have any glaring weaknesses. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively minor. This particular nursing home received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
