Facility Inspections

Grade: B

It should also be noted that this nursing home's inspection score outpaced its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a B for its inspections grade, which is one of our better scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively insignificant. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's next best area was its short-term care score, where it was given a B-. With our short-term care grade, we attempt to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its level of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the measures we assessed. The question is whether this also affected quality of care. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. There are a host of criteria included in this area. Most of these subcategories reflect nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Switching gears to the final area, this nursing home was awarded a C in long-term care, which is a respectable rating. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. One of the data points we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 94.38776 percent of its patients. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
