Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Even though we graded this facility very poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a B- in this area. Our nursing grade weighs several subcategories. The most heavily weighted one is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. This particular facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below the national average. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We were also surprised to discover that this nursing home earned a solid short-term care score this year. We gave it a grade of B- in this category. In calculating these short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third area we analyzed is long-term care, where this facility was given an F. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in this category it is often a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the place is not as well-staffed. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated 82.31293 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be significantly lower than what we were hoping for. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

In our last category of inspections, this facility received an F in this area. Since this data is compiled by government inspectors, we heavily weight negative feedback in this category. When a place has this poor of an inspection grade, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to resident safety. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a risk to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
