Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection ratings are based on datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that excel in this area have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This means that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple relatively minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's higher category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for patient care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents healthy. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.54 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. There are a number of factors within this area. Many of the factors are tied to staffing levels. With 4 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this facility surpassed the national average. We also look at the skill levels of nurses and add more weight to hours worked by skilled nurses. While this place excelled in terms of quantity of nursing hours, it fell short in some of the subcategories that focused on quality. This facility's nursing grade was hurt by its weak performance in the area of minimizing pressure ulcers. We found that 12.4 percent of this facility's residents were suffering from pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our final area is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a C in that category. Short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who returned home from the facility. This place fared respectably with 48 percent of its residents returning home.
