Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection score. In fact, its inspection score was far superior to its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident 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

This facility also received high marks in the category of long-term care, with an elite grade of A in this category. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to live on a permanent basis. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.545456 percent of its patients, which is far higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility's third best score is short-term care. As it turns out, with a D in this area, it still performed somewhat poorly. Short-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The final measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 5.4 percent of its patients returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Turning to the next area, this nursing home really didn't perform well. With a very poor grade of F in nursing, this is this facility's weakest category. Our nursing rating weighs a number of factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average nursing home.
