Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we didn't give this nursing home a good overall score, we did give it a strong grade in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of B+. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid places with a bunch of severe deficiencies flagged. This particular nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's second highest category turned out to be long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a C. For long-term care residents, the primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. We were disappointed to learn that this nursing home vaccinated just 80.434784 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's poor nursing grade where it received an F. The nursing rating consists of a handful of components, however, the main one is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last category we graded was short-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in that category. Short-term care grades are vital for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Not surprisingly, we learned that this facility offers significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical nursing home. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
