Facility Inspections

Grade: F

This facility ended up receiving terrible scores in our assessment. Most alarmingly, it received an F for its inspection grade. Typically, this means we found some red flags on the facility's inspection reports. When a place has this poor of an inspection grade, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This nursing home had 5 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to resident safety or health. 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: F

Tragically, this facility received an F for its long-term care score. Facilities that receive this type of grade in long-term care may not provide the kind of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities provide. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated 88.27586 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is several points lower than the national average. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In our next category, we gave this facility a rock-bottom F in the area of short-term care. With our short-term care category, we try to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess the facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. As you might expect, we found that this place offers far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we rated is nursing, where this nursing home was given a rock bottom score in this area also. It received a lowly F for this area, which is definitely very concerning. When determining a facility's nursing rating, we assess the number of hours nurses are caring for residents as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This place offered just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
