Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good score in the area of inspections. We awarded it a B+ for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also received a favorable score in our long-term care category. We awarded this facility an above average grade of B in this category. Facilities that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to residents. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 93.993996 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is more than most nursing homes. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

As it turns out, this facility only earned a D for its short-term care score, which is not one of our better scores. Short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. With a grade in this range for this category, we weren't surprised to learn that this nursing home was below average in multiple staffing metrics we focus on. It provided far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most nursing homes. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar metrics sunk this facility's short-term care score.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we assessed is nursing, where this facility was given an abysmal grade in this area as well. We gave it a lowly F in this area, which is definitely a major concern. The nursing score is based on many data points. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
