Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this facility's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our best scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's better category grades came in the area of long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B. It actually fared better than most nursing homes in this category. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 91.05145 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is slightly less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third area we graded was short-term care, where this facility received a grade of C in this category. Our short-term care ratings are vital for patients seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires additional skilled nursing services. This means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. It doesn't look like this nursing home submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we rated was nursing. We gave it an abysmal F in this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is obviously a major disappointment. Nursing ratings are largely based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This particular place offered just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This number is quite a bit below the national average. On top of its below average nursing hour totals, this facility also earned poor marks in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We found that a higher percentage of this place's residents suffered falls leading to major injury. We believe that many falls could be avoided with better nursing care. This statistic contributed to this nursing home receiving a terrible nursing score.
