Facility Inspections

Although we were not high on this facility overall, we awarded it a B- for inspections. This score is better than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection ratings are tied to many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Nurse Quality

We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Our nursing rating looks at the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also weigh quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed better than average in this area. This is generally a good measure of how carefully a facility's nursing staff is tending to its patients. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and superior safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

This nursing home's next highest area ended up being its short-term care score, where it was awarded a B-. In our short-term care grade, we seek to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. One of this nursing home's strength is that it offers more hours of care from registered nurses to its residents. The last statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. This place was above average in this metric with 50.1 percent of its residents returning home.

Long-term Care Quality

Moving on to the next category, this facility was awarded an acceptable long-term care grade of C. Our long-term care grade is often used to assess a facility's performance as a traditional nursing home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services offered by a skilled nursing facility. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to a relatively low 84.78261 percent of its residents. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
