Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we did not rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to draw your attention to its excellent inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home received 7 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.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facilities next most favorable category is short-term care. We awarded it a C in this area. This is basically a middle of the road score in this category. Our short-term care grades are crucial for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing. This includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We were surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In our next category, we gave this facility an F in the area of long-term care. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 92.26519 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to our final area, this facility really didn't perform very well in this category either. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in nursing, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. Our nursing score analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily, this place's nurse staffing levels were far below average. On top of ranking below average in nursing hours per resident, this nursing home also had poor scores in the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We looked at the percentage of patients experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in both of these data points. This is a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are preventable with better nursing care. These statistics pulled down this nursing home's nursing rating significantly.
