All Saints Healthcare Subacute

While we graded this nursing home very poorly overall, it actually received a quality score in nursing. We awarded it a B in that area. We assessed the skill-level of nurses employed by the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time the nurses worked with patients, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home averages 0.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a C for our short-term care rating, which is not too bad of a score. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to create a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The tricky part is determining what bearing this had on quality of care. The final measure we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.

This facility's second worse score was long-term care, where it earned just a D in that area. This is a well below average score. For prospective patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. Once we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinates 94.2786 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.

In our last category of inspections, this facility received a horrible grade. With places that received this poor of an inspection grade, we would scrutinize the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility was hit with 6 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they caused a threat to resident health or safety. Finally, we want to point out that this facility received significant government fines amounting to over $100,000. This generally suggests that a facility's bad track record spanned more than one year.
