Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. This facility received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an imminent risk to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home was awarded its next most favorable category grade in the area of short-term care. We gave this facility a C in this area, which is an acceptable score. Short-term care grades are often employed to judge a facility's rehabilitation services. To provide highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of D. Nursing grades are primarily based on the nursing home's nurse staffing. This place offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facility's weakest category was long-term care, which is the last category we scored. We gave it an F for this category. Even with several respectable scores in other areas, this score is nevertheless disappointing so we felt obligated to make sure you are aware. If you are looking for services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 98.16514 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
