Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

One of the reasons this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received a very favorable inspection score. In that area, we awarded this facility a B+. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that 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. A few relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another one of this nursing home's stronger areas was in the category of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B+. Our nursing score analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we graded was short-term care, where this facility received a grade of B- in this area. In computing these short-term care grades, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we scored was long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is a decent grade in this area. For residents in need of a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is higher than the average nursing home. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
