Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We could not find anything favorable to say about this nursing home. It received just a just D in the area of nursing. Unfortunately, this ended up being its best score. Nursing scores are mostly tied to the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This place performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, this facility received an F for its short-term care grade. Our short-term care ratings are critical for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. With a score in this range in this category, we weren't surprised to learn this nursing home was well below average in two of the key staffing figures we looked at. The facility supplied substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents that returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.3 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was quite a bit below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third area we assessed was long-term care. This facility's received an unfortunate long-term care grade where it received a lowly F. Long-term care scores in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated only 62.27848 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning to our final category of inspections, this facility received a grade that's as bad as it gets. We weight this category more heavily than our other categories. When a facility has this bad of an inspection score, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to the well being of residents. This particular nursing home was assessed 9 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
