Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this facility an A+ for our inspections rating. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively minor. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility received a favorable long-term care grade as well. We gave it one of our higher grades in that area with a score of B. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next highest grade we gave this nursing home came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. This wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, but a grade in this range is not the end of the world. We analyzed the skill-level of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours those nurses worked with residents, in calculating our grade in this area. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, while this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in some of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it did well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we looked at was short-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in that category. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. It doesn't appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. The final metric we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.
