Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility really outperformed its overall grade in the category of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in this area with a grade of A-. Inspection ratings account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category tend to have very few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this facility's better category scores came in the area of long-term care. This proved to be its second most favorable category. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 97.278915 percent of its patients, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next most favorable category was short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a C. Our short-term care ratings are likely more meaningful for those requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually utilizes additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that returned home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The last area we looked at was nursing. We gave this nursing home a C in this area. Our nursing score focuses on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of skill of the nurses and 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, we like to look at quality-based metrics, such as the percent of residents who experienced pressure ulcers and major falls. These metrics are decent measures of the quality of nursing care.
