Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its decent overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A+ for its inspection grade. This score is far better than its overall rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively insignificant. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, we gave this nursing home a B+ in our long-term care category. This happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 97.35007 percent of its residents. This is a proven method to avoid negative health outcomes for the nursing home population. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Next we looked at nursing grades, where this nursing home received an F, which is a rock bottom grade. This area was definitely not a strength for this facility. The nursing score is based on numerous subcategories. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to our fourth category, this nursing home did not fare well. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this is this facility's weakest category grade. Our short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Considering its abysmal score in this category, we weren't surprised to learn this place offers far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
