Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. Our nursing score focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, while this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this metric.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home also didn't perform too badly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of B- in that area, which is among its better scores. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. The last item we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Unfortunately, with a grade of D in the inspection category, this facility performed relatively poorly in that area. One of the more significant factors in assessing inspection reports is deficiencies. We recommend you scrutinize the severity of the deficiencies. This particular facility had 5 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a risk to resident safety or health. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we scored was long-term care. This facility was given an abysmal grade of F in this category. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. We were optimistic to find that this nursing home vaccinated 94.5946 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
