Long-term Care Quality
We want to note that this facility earned a much better grade for long-term care than it did overall. we gave it one of our highest grades in that area with a grade of A. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are well cared for. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 96.632996 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is better than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this nursing home had 3.42 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Although this admittedly wasn't as impressive as some of its other scores in this area, this number can be skewed for some facilities based on some of the preexisting medical conditions of patients.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home also excelled in inspections, where it received an B+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. This place received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home only received a D for its short-term care rating, which is not an impressive grade. Our short-term care scores are critical for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. In this place's case, it looks like it offered less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. This was not a strength either for this facility. We found that just 48.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is below average.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest area was nursing, which is the last category we analyzed. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this area. Despite multiple solid grades in other categories, this score is still disappointing so we wanted to draw your attention to it. Our nursing rating assesses a handful of subcategories, but the paramount consideration is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 3.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is below average. 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 grades. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and major falls. This facility had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many falls and bed sores are preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, these statistics hurt this nursing home's nursing grade quite a bit.
