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-. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Surprisingly, we gave this facility a grade of B- for our long-term care grade, which is not too bad of a score. Long-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's amount of care. This includes a broad spectrum of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine medical services. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to only 68.044075 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. In determining a nursing home's nursing grade, we weigh the amount of time nurses are seeing residents as well as the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Turning to our final category, this nursing home did not fare very well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. Our short-term care grades are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this nursing home offers substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than a typical facility. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care grade.
