Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

We were not high on this facility's overall grades or its category grades. We gave it just a D for long-term care and that proved to be its highest score. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 99.75248 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this facility's second best category was inspections. Nevertheless, with a grade of just D in this category, it still fared relatively poorly. Our inspection grades weigh many items found on the nursing home's recent inspection reports. If you find too many deficiencies on the inspection reports, this is typically a bad sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This facility was hit with 7 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, we want to draw your attention to the fact that this place was assessed large government fines totaling more than $100,000. This often means that a nursing home'spoor track record spanned multiple years.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. The nursing score is based on several factors. The most important factor is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This particular nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This number is significantly below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Turning to the final category, this facility didn't fare well in this area either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as as uninspiring as it gets. In our short-term care category, we strive to forge a valuable barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Given its poor score in this area, we weren't shocked to learn this place offered substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
