Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it earned a very impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our better grades in that category with a B+. Our inspection grades are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these reports. Most importantly, you should avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. While this place had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its short-term care score. In determining our short-term care scores, we assess the facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This rating is generally a useful assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third area we graded was long-term care, where this nursing home received an F. Long-term care scores in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home provided the vaccine to only 56.976746 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we assessed was nursing, where this nursing home was given an abysmal score here as well. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. The nursing score considers a variety of data points. The most heavily weighted one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This place offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This nursing home also had terrible scores in some of the quality-based measures to pair with its low nursing hour totals. For starters, we looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than double the national average in this datapoint.
