Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we didn't give this facility a good overall score, we did give it a strong grade in the area of inspections, where it earned a B+. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's short-term care score ended up being one of its more favorable scores. The facility was awarded a C in this category. Our short-term care grades are crucial for people requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home's next highest category was long-term care. However, with a grade of D in this area, it still performed somewhat badly. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 94.28571 percent of its patients, which is a very respectable total. To our surprise, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we analyzed is nursing, which ended up being a weak spot for this nursing home. We awarded this facility a D for our nursing category. Nursing grades are based in large part on quality and quantity of nursing care. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
