Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home's overall grade was propped up by the fact that it has received favorable health inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our better scores in that category, with a B+. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you 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. A couple of minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility earned high grades in the area of nursing as well. It received one of our highest grades in that category with an B-. Our nursing rating is largely based on the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, our nursing grades also consider quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next best category we gave this nursing home in any category came in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a grade of C. Our short-term care grade is typically employed to gauge a facility's rehabilitation services In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last category we scored is long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a C for the category. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. It doesn't appear that this facility submitted information on its vaccination levels. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
