Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Although we did not have many positive things to say about this facility's overall score, it did receive a somewhat respectable government inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that area with a B-. Inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's second most favorable category came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature higher levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. The facility offered fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is still important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third category we assessed is long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a solid grade of C. Our long-term care grade assesses a facility's personal care rather than the skilled therapy and medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next area we looked at was nursing, which turned out to be this facility's least impressive area. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in that area. When determining our nursing ratings, we analyze both nursing hours and the training levels of the nurses. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
