Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. We believe that one of the most important factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially focus on the severity of those deficiencies. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Incredibly, we gave this nursing home a C for its long-term care rating, which really isn't a bad grade. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. One of the factors we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to just 73.968254 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this place keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. Our nursing score looks at the facility's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of skill of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we looked at is short-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in this area. In determining our short-term care grades, we assess a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This category is often a meaningful measure of the facility's rehabilitation. With its grade in this category, we were not stunned to find that this facility was well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the metrics we looked at. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
