Short-term Care Quality

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a decent short-term care rating this year. We gave it a B- in that area. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below average.

Nurse Quality

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. Our nursing grade is largely based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This statistic is far below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Facility Inspections

Among this facility's worst category grades was an F for its inspection score. Typically, this indicates we found some red flags on the nursing home's inspections. When a place has this poor of an inspection grade, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. This particular nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a risk to patient health or safety. Lastly, we want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed significant government fines recently amounting to over $100,000. This generally suggests that a facility's bad track record has been an issue for several years.

Long-term Care Quality

Switching gears to our final area, this nursing home really did not perform very well here either. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. If you are looking for anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care scores. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 94.927536 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
