Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We awarded this nursing home an A for our short-term care rating. This is far more impressive than its overall score. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing grade. In fact, nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we awarded this nursing home an A. We assessed the skill-level of nurses employed by the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses spent with residents, in computing our rating in this area. This facility provided 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 place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

This facility did not receive a favorable inspection rating. We gave it just a D in this category. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. This particular nursing home was assessed 2 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a risk to resident safety or health. Lastly, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed significant government fines in recent years amounting to more than $100,000. This generally means that a facility's bad performance has been an issue for multiple years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to our last area, we gave this nursing home a D in long-term care. This is the facility's worst category grade. Unfortunately, this score hurt the facility's overall profile to some degree. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the facility is not as well-staffed. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 93.81443 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
