Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher grades in that category, with an A+. This is a notably better score than the place's overall grade, which was decent but certainly not elite. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this area generally have very few severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the 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 of minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was given a strong long-term care score. As a matter of fact, we awarded it a B in that category, which is one of our more favorable scores. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care ratings. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 85.202866 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be a bit below what we expected but still a decent figure. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, we were pleased to find place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of nursing care, with a grade of C. There are several factors included in this area. Many of the criteria relate to the quantity of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be 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 offered.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the next category, this nursing home really didn't perform well. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this was this nursing home's poorest category grade. Our short-term care grade is often employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to feature better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home provides substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
