Facility Inspections

Grade: C

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of C. Our inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but fortunately none were in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent danger to patient safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home also didn't rate too badly in the category of short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a grade of C for that area, which is another one of its more favorable grades. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a fair gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. Our nursing rating includes quite a few datapoints, most of which are associated with levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This facility fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these statistics to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the next area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D for long-term care. This is the facility's least impressive category rating. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities offer. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home administered the vaccine to only 40.39088 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home 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 the majority of nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
