Nurse Quality

Grade: A

In addition to receiving a great overall score, this nursing home really excelled in the category of nursing, where it received a grade of A. The nursing category weighs several components, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Inspections is another category where this facility excelled. We awarded this nursing home an B+ for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than its overall grade. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we looked at was long-term care, where this nursing home received a grade of B- in this category. In the area of long-term care, we analyze the quantity of care offered by a facility, rather than more medically-intensive services. After we finished assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinates 98.064514 percent of its residents against pneumonia. 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.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our final category is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a C in that category. In computing our short-term care ratings, we look at a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This score is frequently a solid assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
