Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+ in our long-term care category. This is one of our better scores. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. Nursing scores are mostly based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This place averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, which is well below average. Finally, our nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last category we analyzed was short-term care, proved to be this nursing home's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this area. This was one of just a few weak points of an otherwise impressive report card. Short-term care scores are crucial for individuals seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a broad spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we discovered that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
