Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To go along with its favorable overall performance, we gave this place an A- for the area of inspections. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. While this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Among this nursing home's other accomplishments is its superb long-term care grade. We gave them one of our most impressive grades in that area, with a score of A-. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 92.675156 percent of its patients. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home is also above average in the category of short-term care, where it was given a score of B+. It performed better than most nursing homes in this category. In computing our short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This category is typically a useful assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Switching gears to our last area, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ in that category. This topped off a very impressive report card. Our nursing grade is based on many factors, however, the paramount consideration is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also factored a few quality measures into our nursing grades. This nursing home was relatively weak in two of the major areas we focus on, with below average scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care provided.
