Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving an elite overall rating, this nursing home also earned an A+ inspection grade. This is based on its recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the highest complements we can pay to a facility. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being relatively minor. While this facility had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the government 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: A

This facility received strong grades in the category of short-term care as well. Consequently, we gave it one of our best scores in that category with a area of A. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of patients that ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. Our nursing score assesses the facility's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses and the number of hours spent with residents. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a relatively low total compared with most other nursing homes. Finally, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared well in this metric.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last category we graded is nursing, ended up being this nursing home's worst area. We awarded this facility a D in this area. This was one of the couple of dings on an otherwise impressive report card. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 96.12903 percent of its residents, which is a very solid percentage. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
