Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

One of the reasons this turned out to be a decent facility is that it received a very favorable inspection score. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B+. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also received a favorable score in our short-term care category. We gave this nursing home a better than average grade of B+ in that category. Our short-term care grades are meaningful for people requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final item we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of C in this category. Nursing grades are based in large part on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final category we assessed is long-term care. We gave this nursing home a C in that category. Long-term care grades are meaningful for prospective residents requiring personal care. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to a relatively low 88.16964 percent of its residents, which is well below average. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
