Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We gave this nursing home an A in the short-term care category. Short-term care grades are vital for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a vast range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 6.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. There are several subcategories within this area. Many of these datapoints relate to levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day, which is not an impressive total. Lastly, while this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this metric.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we analyzed was long-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's least impressive area. Sadly, it received an F in this category, which is certainly a major disappointment. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
