Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To go along with its relatively modest overall score, we gave this facility an A- for our inspections rating. This grade is far better than the facility's overall score. Inspection grades are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's higher category grades came in the category of long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this category. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure residents are kept in good health. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 98.281784 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's third best category is short-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. Our short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a wide range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who returned home from this facility. We found that 5.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Our final area is nursing, in which we gave this facility a grade of C in this area. Our nursing rating is mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, which is not an impressive total. Finally, we also considered a few quality-based metrics in this category. While this nursing home didn't rank well in terms of nursing hours, it performed much better in some of the quality measures we looked at. By way of illustration, in terms of the percentage of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, this nursing home performed better than the national average. This is usually a good indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented with better nursing care.
