Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While this place's overall grade was not a highlight, it did receive a very good score in the area of inspections. In fact, we gave it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. It is generally in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that have a long list of severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's second most favorable category turned out to be its long-term care score, where it was awarded a C. In our long-term care rating, we weigh the volume of care offered by a nursing home, along with a few quality metrics. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home vaccinated 99.15966 percent of its patients, which is an above average figure. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of C. We analyzed the qualifications of nurses working for the facility, as well as the number of hours the nurses spent with patients, in calculating our rating in this category. This nursing home provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a somewhat discouraging figure as it is well below average. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we scored is short-term care, in which this nursing home received a poor score in this category as well. We gave it an F in this area, which is obviously a major disappointment. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its abysmal grade in this area, we weren't surprised to find this facility provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
