Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. Inspection ratings 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 inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This facility was assessed 8 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Nursing ratings are mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.1 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This place performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these metrics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we analyzed is short-term care. This nursing home's was given a rock-bottom short-term care score where it was given an F. In forming our short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The goal is to create a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Not surprisingly, we learned that this facility offers significantly less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The last item we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4 percent of its residents returning home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we looked at is long-term care. Sadly, it received an abysmal F for this area, which is a rock bottom grade. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 91.735535 percent of its residents, which is somewhat below what we expected. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best score in this category.
