Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we did not rate this facility highly overall, we want to draw your attention to its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A- in this category. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that had a long list of severe deficiencies. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also ended up giving this facility a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B-. When determining a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the number of hours nurses are caring for residents and the levels of training of the nurses. This nursing home provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a somewhat concerning figure as it is well below the national average. Finally, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We also awarded this nursing home a respectable score in the category of short-term care, with a grade of C. Our short-term care grades are likely more important for patients requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally requires more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not only nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we graded was long-term care. This facility was given a bottom of the barrel grade of F in this category. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 44.859814 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this facility was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
