Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility's short-term care rating is notably more impressive than its overall grade. Due to a strong performance in this category, it received one of our better scores in that area with a grade of B+. Our short-term care grades are considered to be more critical for individuals requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. It does not look like this facility provided information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

We also want to emphasize this place's nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of B+ in this area. Our inspection scores are tied to items found on the a nursing home's inspections. Facilities that excel in this category tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility's third best category is long-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this area, it still performed somewhat badly. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Switching gears to the next area, we awarded this nursing home a D in the area of nursing. This is the nursing home's least impressive category score. The nursing rating includes several factors. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. This particular facility offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This statistic is far below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place was above average in two of the data points we considered, with good marks for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These statistics are typically reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care offered.
