Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being a quality nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A+. Not many nursing homes performed better in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively insignificant. This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient health or safety. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's quality category scores came in the category of long-term care. We gave them one of our more positive grades in that category, with a score of B. For patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 72.02072 percent of its residents, which is a few points less than we anticipated. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, we were pleased to find nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to the category of nursing care, this facility didn't perform quite as well in this area as some of the categories discussed above. Nevertheless, a grade of B- in this category is by no means a bad score. The nursing score features a number of subcategories. The most important one is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, which is a very low figure. Lastly, although this nursing home got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this subcategory.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final category we rated was short-term care. This nursing home was given a C in the area. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to forge a fair measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at a facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
