Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our inspection ratings are tied to several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. You should especially avoid facilities that have severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

We awarded this facility just a D for our long-term care rating and that actually wound up as its next highest score. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to a relatively low 83.53659 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. There are a variety of factors within this category. Many of the criteria are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we scored was short-term care. We gave it an abysmal F for this category, which is a bottom of the barrel score. Our short-term care ratings are probably most critical for those in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. With its grade in this category, we were not surprised to find that this facility was well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the figures we looked at. The final measure we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics was damning for this nursing home's short-term care score.
