Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received an impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our highest grades in that category with a grade of A+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite insignificant. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this facility a rock-bottom F in the category of short-term care. In the category of short-term care, we try to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. With its score in this area, we were not stunned to learn that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. The nursing grade weighs a variety of factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we looked at was long-term care. It received a lowly F for this category, which is an abysmal grade. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place also keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
