Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher grades in that area, with an A. This is a notably better score than the place's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Our inspection ratings are tied to datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this area have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, we gave this facility a B+ in our long-term care category. This is one of our higher scores. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. Once we assessed the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly can be a dangerous illness for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's next highest category turned out to be its short-term care score, where it received a C. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. This nursing home boosted its score in this category by offering more physical therapy hours to its residents than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. It performed respectably in this metric with 46.3 percent of its patients returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we graded was nursing, which was this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in that category. Sadly, this score pulled down the nursing home's overall grade a bit. Our nursing score is primarily tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility averaged only 2.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. On top of its weak nursing hour totals, this place received suboptimal marks in many of the quality-based metrics we considered in calculating our nursing ratings. We found that a higher percentage of this nursing home's patients sustained falls leading to major injury. We believe that many falls could be avoided with better nursing care. This statistic contributed to this nursing home receiving a poor nursing score.
