Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection grades account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. 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

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Unfortunately, this ended up being one of its better grades. The nursing rating considers a variety of factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the quantity of hours nurses spent with patients. This place offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this facility a rock-bottom F in the area of long-term care. For residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. Once we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 98.71086 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we analyzed was short-term care, in which this facility received a poor grade in this area as well. It received a lowly F for this category, which is obviously somewhat alarming. In crafting these short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Based on its score in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this place was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the data we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected to find. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.7 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was quite a bit below the national average.
