Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Although we gave this place a bad overall score, we actually gave it a somewhat respectable score in the category of inspections, where we gave it a grade of B-. This was quite a bit better than its other category grades. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This place received 10 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Nursing ratings are largely based on the facility's nurse staffing. This place averages just 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is well below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In fact, it performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home was given its third highest category grade in the category of short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a grade of B- in this area, which is a respectable grade. In our short-term care score, we endeavor to forge a meaningful measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The real question is whether this also impacted quality of care. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's worst category was long-term care, which is the last area we assessed. For this category, we gave this nursing home a D. For residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 99.19355 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
