Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. Our nursing score analyzes the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. Although this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it did well in this statistic. This is often an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of turning a resident even once per day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home also didn't grade out terribly in the area of long-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of B- in that category, which ended up being another one of its more favorable grades. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care ratings. After considering the volume of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 93 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Fortunately, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home's next best score is short-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this category, it still performed relatively badly. In computing these short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to formulate a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. With a score in this range for this area, we weren't shocked to learn that this facility was well below average in two of the key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it supplied substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Moving on the final category of inspections, this ended up being this facility's weakest link. Inspection ratings are based on a facility's recent inspection reports. We gave this nursing home a score of D in this category, which is a very weak grade. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. Generally, you should be especially cautious when considering a nursing home that has severe deficiencies on a recent inspection report. This nursing home was hit with 8 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they caused a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
