Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with a favorable overall grade, we gave this place an A+ for inspections. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another quality feature for this facility is that it was given a favorable long-term care score. Indeed, this ended up being its second best category grade. In this area, we gave this facility a grade of B+. For prospective residents in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. This nursing home's vaccination data lagged a bit behind a few of the other statistics in this category, such as its nursing hours data. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 85.47215 percent of its patients. We would love to see some improvement herein this statistic in the future. Fortunately, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 1.13 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a substantially better hospitalization rate than the majority of nursing homes.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Our nursing score consists of many factors, however, the paramount consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides an impressive 4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Finally, this facility also performed well in several of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In terms of the number of its patients sustaining falls leading to serious injury, this nursing home performed as well as any facility in the state.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final area we looked at is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a B-. While this wound up being its poorest category rating, this is still not the end of the world. In calculating these short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to create a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. This nursing home elevated its grade in this category by offering more care from registered nurses to its residents than the average facility. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that it performed decently in this area, with 45.5 percent of its residents returning home.
