Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we didn't grade this nursing home favorably overall, we actually gave it an excellent score in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of A-. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's long-term care rating is one of its best features. The nursing home was given a grade of C in this category. For residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. One of the criteria we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 63.356163 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third category we assessed is short-term care. This facility's was given a low-end short-term care score where it received an F. With our short-term care assessment, we endeavor to create a valuable barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we learned that this facility offers substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we looked at is nursing. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this area, which is a very poor score. Our nursing grade weighs quite a few components, most of which are based on quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Unfortunately, this facility also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based measures to pair with its low nursing hour totals. We looked at the percent of patients experiencing pressure ulcers and we were very disappointed. This nursing home was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in this metric. This is a bad sign in light of the fact that so many bed sores could be avoided with better nursing care. This metric helped pull down this nursing home's nursing score quite a bit.
