Facility Inspections

Grade: A

We want to point out that this nursing home outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in this area with a grade of A. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 8 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home received its next best category grade in the area of long-term care. We awarded this nursing home a grade of B- in this category, which is a decent score. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care grades. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinated 95.61753 percent of its residents for pneumonia. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facilities next most favorable area is short-term care. We gave it a B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the pack score in this area. Our short-term care scores are meaningful for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents that returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The final area we graded is nursing. It received an abysmal F in this category, which is a very poor grade. This is obviously a significant concern. When determining our nursing ratings, we analyze both staffing levels and the training levels of the nurses. With only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below the national average. In addition to receiving below average marks for total nursing hours, this facility was a bit less impressive in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and found that this facility was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in this statistic.
