Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the category of inspections, where it received an A+. Few facilities performed better in this area. Inspection scores are based on datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also received a strong score in our short-term care category. We gave this facility an above average grade of B in that area. In determining these short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this facility is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an D. Our nursing rating weighs a handful of subcategories, but the paramount one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This place offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This facility fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last area we rated was long-term care, is this facility's weakest area. We gave this facility a grade of D in this category. This was one of just a couple of dings in a quality profile. Nursing homes that do not score well in this category often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. Once we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated just 61.1465 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
