Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid facilities that had too many deficiencies. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's next most respectable score was short-term care. Nevertheless, with a D in this area, it still fared relatively badly. Our short-term care grade is often employed to measure a facility's rehabilitation services. To provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. With a score in this range in this category, we weren't surprised to learn that this nursing home was well below average in the two key staffing metrics we focus on. It provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 5.5 percent of its residents returning home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

We gave this nursing home just a D for our long-term care grade. This is well below average in this category. In a long-term care setting, the primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. One of the statistics we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last category we analyzed was nursing. This nursing home received a bottom of the barrel grade of F in that area. Nursing scores are mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
