Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of performing well overall, this facility received nearly flawless government inspections. Therefore, it received one of our best grades in that category with an A+. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to direct your attention to the fact that this facility excelled in our long-term care rating. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this area. Facilities that do well in this category typically provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is far higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. While this wasn't quite as good as some of its other category grades, this isn't a bad score either. In determining our nursing ratings, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. It performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home's least impressive category was short-term care, which is the final area we scored. It received an abysmal F in this area. In spite of some strong scores in other categories, this grade is nevertheless somewhat alarming so we would like to to make sure you are aware. Our short-term care grades are likely more meaningful for patients requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically mandates more skilled nursing services. This includes not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.5 percent of its residents returning home.
