Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this nursing home an A for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. 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. Based on this, we still had a generally favorable view of this nursing home's inspections.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this nursing home a respectable score in the category of long-term care, with a grade of B-. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care grades. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 99.06542 percent of its patients. This facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an D. In computing our nursing grades, we look at both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home averaged a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home's weakest category is short-term care, which is the final category we looked at. Sadly, it received an F for this area. Despite a few respectable scores in other areas, this grade is nevertheless disappointing so we would like to to make sure you are aware. Our short-term care grade is commonly used to score a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must have higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. With a grade this poor in this category, we were not surprised to learn that this place was below average in multiple staffing metrics we assess. It provided far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
