Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our higher grades in that area, with an A. This is a much better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's second best area is long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B-. In computing these long-term care ratings, we look at the facility's personal care services. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 95.588234 percent of its patients. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an D. We analyzed the levels of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time the nurses worked with patients, in determining our rating in this category. This nursing home provided a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This facility fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these datapoints to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we looked at was short-term care, which turned out to be this facility's least impressive category. We awarded this nursing home a D in that category. In our short-term care assessment, we seek to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. With its score in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics doomed this facility's short-term care score.
