Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to point out that this nursing home has received near flawless health inspections recently. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Inspection grades are tied to several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also gave this nursing home a grade of A- for our long-term care score. Facilities that excel in this category tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. One of the datapoints we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 99.681526 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a proven method to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the senior population. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home received an impressive short-term care score as well. We gave it one of our better grades in that area with a score of B. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to assess a facility's rehabilitation services In order to have highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we looked at was nursing. This nursing home received a very good nursing score this year, with a B-. While this is not nearly as strong as many of its other category grades, this is nevertheless a decent rating in this category. In calculating our nursing grades, we assess both staffing levels and the skill levels of those nurses. This place averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, which is well below average. Finally, we look at quality-based statistics, such as the percentage of residents who suffered pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these data points are decent indicators of the quality of nursing care.
