Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we gave this nursing home a horrible overall grade, we awarded it an A for our inspections rating. This grade is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection scores are based on several items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these reports. Most importantly, you should avoid facilities that have severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This nursing home offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we graded is long-term care. This facility's was given a rock-bottom long-term care score where it received an F. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 84.12162 percent of its patients. This is quite a bit below average. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we scored was short-term care. We gave it a lowly F for this area, which is a bottom of the barrel score. In determining our short-term care scores, we assess a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This area is often a solid assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Given its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the figures we assessed. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
