Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its favorable overall performance, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection scores are based on several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Among its many impressive scores, this nursing home received an excellent nursing score. We gave it an B+ in that area. Our nursing grade is primarily associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility Indiana in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by having a policy of turning a patient more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was given an impressive long-term care grade. Indeed, we awarded it an above average grade of B in this category. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 98.84393 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia sadly is often a life threatening illness for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our last area is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a C in this category. With our short-term care score, we try to forge a valuable gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the nursing home's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.
