Facility Inspections

Although we did not rate this nursing home highly overall, we want to draw your attention to its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite minor. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down deficiency data for this facility. Without having all of the information regarding deficiencies for this nursing home, it ended up being a challenge to fully evaluate the place in the inspections category.

Short-term Care Quality

This nursing home's next best category was short-term care. We gave it a C in this category. This is essentially a middle of the road grade in this area. Short-term care grades are generally used to grade a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to have good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final measure we looked at in this category is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. Our nursing grade looks at the facility's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of skill of those nurses and the amount of time spent with patients. This place averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these datapoints to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

The final area we analyzed was long-term care. This facility was given a poor grade of F in this area. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is often a bad sign for resident care and it may mean that the place is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. One of the data points we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 91.847824 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.
