Facility Inspections

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a strong nursing home is that it earned a very impressive inspection grade. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility an A. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient 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

We also awarded this nursing home a score of A for our long-term care grade. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 93.20388 percent of its residents. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third highest area we gave this nursing home in any category came in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a C. Our short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this nursing home submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Switching gears to the fourth area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D in our nursing category. This was the nursing home's least impressive category grade. Naturally, this grade hurt the nursing home's overall grade a bit. When determining a nursing home's nursing grade, we assess the amount of time nurses are with patients and the level of skill of the nurses. This nursing home averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is an alarmingly low total. Although this nursing home's nursing hours were below average, it actually surprised us in some of the qualitative statistics in this category. In particular, we were pleased to find that its patients appear to be sustaining fewer pressure ulcers than the national average.
