Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection score. In fact, its inspection grade was far superior to its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we still had a generally positive view of this facility's recent inspections.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we gave it a first-rate long-term care score. Indeed, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. One of the datapoints we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 77.59336 percent of its patients. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home received a strong nursing grade as well. It earned one of our better grades in that category with a grade of F. Our nursing rating is based on many factors. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this place's nurse staffing levels were well below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we assessed is short-term care, which ended up being this facility's weakest category. We gave it an F in this area, which is clearly concerning. In computing our short-term care ratings, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is typically a reliable measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. With a score in this range in this category, we were not surprised to learn this nursing home was below average in two of the key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it provided substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This definitely wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 2.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
