Nurse Quality

Grade: C

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of C in that category. When determining our nursing scores, we assess both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a low total compared to most other nursing homes. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In fact, it scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility's second most respectable score is short-term care. However, with a grade of D in this area, it still performed relatively badly. Our short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Based on its grade in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Frankly, this was about what we expected to find. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this facility's short-term care score.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Among this facility's alarming category grades was an F for its inspection score. Generally, this indicates we found red flags on the facility's inspections. For places that received this poor of an inspection rating, we recommend scrutinizing any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This facility was hit with one category J or K deficiency, which are among the worst deficiencies. Lastly, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed large government fines of more than $100,000. This often means that a nursing home's bad track record has been an issue for more than one year.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we assessed is long-term care. Sadly, it received an F for this category, which is a poor grade. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it generally means the nursing home did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated 67.375885 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which happens to be quite a few points lower than what we were hoping for. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.
