Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall score is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that area, with an A. This is a notably better score than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to resident safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

One of the other reasons we rated this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an B+. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the number of hours those nurses spent with patients, in computing our rating in this area. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next best area is short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a C. In computing our short-term care ratings, we scrutinize a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This area is more often than not a fair assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. We were not able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last area we looked at was long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a grade of C for the category. Our long-term care grades are more critical for individuals requiring more conventional assistance related to activities of daily living. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 94.82758 percent of its patients. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
