Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our short-term care rating. Our short-term care scores are thought to be more meaningful for folks requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more skilled nursing. This includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's next best category was inspections. Nevertheless, with just a D in this category, it still performed poorly. Our inspection ratings factor in many items on the facility's inspection reports. If you see too many deficiencies on the inspection reports, this is typically a bad sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This facility had one category G through L deficiency, which are among the more severe categories of deficiencies. This generally indicates that the deficiencies identified by CMS had potential to cause actual harm to residents. Finally, we would like to point out that this place was assessed large government fines of more than $100,000. This typically indicates that a nursing home'sbad track record has been an issue for several years.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Our nursing score analyzes the facility's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of training of those nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This place provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we scored is long-term care. Sadly, it received an F for this category, which is a very poor grade. For residents seeking a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. After considering the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 98.9418 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
