Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Even though we gave this facility a terrible overall score, we gave it a B- for short-term care. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. Nursing grades are largely tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a somewhat discouraging figure as it is well below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home surprisingly fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

We also wanted to point out this facility's inspection grade where it received a lowly F. For nursing homes with bad inspection grades, you should scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they created a risk to resident safety or health. Finally, we also want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home received large government fines recently of over $100,000. This often suggests that a poor track record has been an issue for several years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we looked at is long-term care, in which this facility received a very poor grade in this area as well. Sadly, it received an F for this area, which is definitely a major disappointment. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. One of the statistics we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to only 89.09091 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this facility was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
