Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we were not high on this facility overall, we awarded it a B- for inspections. This score is better than this facility's overall grade. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Nursing ratings are largely associated with the facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In fact, it performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility was awarded its third highest category grade in the area of long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in this area, which is a decent score. For prospective patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to a relatively low 85.783134 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to the final category, this facility was awarded a C in short-term care, which is a decent rating. In computing our short-term care grades, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This area is considered to be a solid measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. In fact, it provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 3.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.
