Facility Inspections

While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that area, which is one of our best scores. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing grade features several datapoints. The most heavily weighted factor is the quantity of hours nurses spent with residents. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, nursing ratings also consider quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to the category of short-term care, this facility was awarded just a D in this area. In computing our short-term care grades, we scrutinize the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This category is generally a meaningful assessment of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Based on its abysmal grade in this area, we were not shocked to find that this place provided far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.9 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

This facility's least impressive area is long-term care, which is the final category we analyzed. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D. For prospective residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 99.30556 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
