Facility Inspections

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Nurse Quality

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of C in this category. Nursing scores are mostly based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a relatively low total compared to most facilities. Lastly, although this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it did well in this metric.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility's next highest area is its short-term care score, where it was given a C. With our short-term care category, we try to create a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze a nursing home's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The question is whether this also impacted quality of care. The last measure we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Long-term Care Quality

This nursing home's worst category was long-term care, which is the last area we scored. For this area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of just D. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.557526 percent of its residents, which is better than the average nursing home. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
