Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home received positive long-term care marks this year. We awarded them one of our better grades in that category, with a grade of B. This turned out to be the facility's second best score. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it typically means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 96.72897 percent of its patients. This is a proven method to avoid negative health outcomes for the aged 65 and up population. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's second lowest category was short-term care, where it earned a grade of just D in that area. This is a well below average score. Our short-term care scores are crucial for people requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes more skilled nursing services. This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. With a score this poor in this area, we weren't surprised to learn this facility was well below average in multiple staffing areas we assess. The facility provided far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we looked at was nursing, which ended up being this nursing home's least impressive area. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this area, which is clearly a major concern. The nursing score includes several factors, however, the main consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This place offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
