Short-term Care Quality

We awarded this facility an A- for our short-term care score. This score is far more impressive than its overall score. Our short-term care grades are thought to be more important for people in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of skilled nursing. This includes not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Facility Inspections

In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of B+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.

Nurse Quality

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of B- in this category. Our nursing score looks at the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with patients. 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. 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 place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally a reliable indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses aids to assist its residents.

Long-term Care Quality

The last area we graded was long-term care. We awarded this facility a D in long-term care, rendering this the nursing home's weakest category. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.259254 percent of its residents, which is an above average percentage. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
