Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Although we didn't give this facility a good overall score, we did give it a strong grade in the category of inspections, where it earned a B. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid places that had a long list of deficiencies. This place was assessed 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this nursing home's more favorable category scores came in the category of long-term care. This turned out to be its second most respectable category. In that category, we gave this facility a B-. Long-term care grades focus on a facility's personal care instead of the skilled therapy and medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility vaccinated 99.65278 percent of its patients, which is an above average statistic. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. In calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we assess the number of hours nurses spend with patients as well as the skill levels of those nurses. This facility offered a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's worst category was short-term care, which is the final category we looked at. For this category, we gave this nursing home a grade of just D. Short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. With its score in this category, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
