Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Although we did not rate this facility well overall, we want to point out its decent grade of B- in the area of nursing. Our nursing rating weighs a host of subcategories. The most heavily weighted one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This facility averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which is well below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It scored well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's short-term care grade appears to be one of its best features. The facility received a grade of C in this category. Short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

This facility earned slightly below average government inspections in recent years. We gave them a grade of C in this category. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home had 10 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This means that inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent danger to patient safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we looked at was long-term care. This facility received an abysmal grade of F in that area. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care grades. One of the data points we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
