Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility received a long-term care grade which is stronger than its overall score. We awarded this nursing home a grade of B in this area. When facilities receive this type of score in long-term care it is a good sign for patient care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. After we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 93.99142 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia tragically can be a life threatening ailment for nursing home residents so we prefer when a nursing home does not roll the dice on this issue. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's second most favorable area is short-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a B-. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home received a good score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection scores weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The final area we scored was nursing. For that category, we gave this facility a grade of C. Our nursing rating focuses on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure which is well below average. Finally, we also baked some quality-based metrics into our nursing ratings. This facility was subpar in a few of the major areas we look at, with below average scores for minimizing its patients' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are often indicators of the quality of nursing care available.
