Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection grade. Its inspection grade was far better than its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Another strength of this facility is its high-end score in long-term care. We gave it one of our more favorable scores in that category, with a grade of A-. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 42.801556 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, we were pleased to find nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Next we looked at nursing grades, where this nursing home received an F, which is a rock bottom grade. This area was definitely not a strength for this facility. We scrutinized the qualifications of nurses working for the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time those nurses worked with patients, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home provides 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these datapoints to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the next category, this facility didn't perform very well. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this was this nursing home's worst area. Short-term care scores are meaningful for patients in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes a wide range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its grade in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this place was well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the figures we looked at. Frankly, this was about what we expected here. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this nursing home's short-term care grade.
