Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of receiving a great overall score, this nursing home also earned top notch government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with an A. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor dings aren't necessarily something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Among its many impressive grades, this nursing home earned an excellent nursing rating. We gave it an B+ in that category. Our nursing score is primarily based on the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this nursing home also received favorable short-term care scores this year. Indeed, we awarded it one of our more favorable grades in that area, with a score of B+. With our short-term care category, we endeavor to craft a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next category we assessed was long-term care, in which this nursing home was given a B. This nursing home did not turn out to have any identifiable weaknesses. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
