Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall score, we awarded it a grade of C for short-term care. Our short-term care ratings are arguably more important for patients in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. The last measure we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Nursing scores are mostly tied to a facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

We also wanted to draw your attention to this nursing home's inspection score where it received a lowly F. For facilities with bad inspection scores, you should scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility was hit with 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a threat to resident health or safety. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last category we scored was long-term care, where this facility was given a bottom of the barrel grade in this area as well. It received an abysmal F for this area, which is definitely somewhat alarming. Facilities that don't fare well in this category typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We were a bit concerned this nursing home gave the vaccine to just 73.85321 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
