Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While we graded this place incredibly poorly overall, it earned a relatively impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our more favorable scores in that category with a B. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility only received a D for its short-term care grade, which ended up being one of its more respectable category scores. Our short-term care ratings are crucial for people looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing grade is primarily associated with the nursing home's nurse staffing. This place offered a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we looked at was long-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this area, which is a poor grade. Nursing homes that don't score well in long-term care often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in some of the areas of routine personal care we assessed. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home gave the vaccine to a relatively low 80.17242 percent of its residents, which is slightly concerning. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
