Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

On top of faring well overall, this nursing home received high marks in the category of short-term care as well. As a result, it received our highest grade in that category with an A+. In computing our short-term care ratings, we scrutinize the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This area is generally a meaningful assessment of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

This facility has earned near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. Arguably the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors did not deem 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: A-minus

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. We assessed the qualifications of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses were with patients, in computing our grade in this area. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last area we looked at is this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its weakest link we still awarded it a respectable grade of C for our long-term care category. Our long-term care scores are more critical for those in need of more traditional services related to personal care. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to a relatively low 85.71429 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
