Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Although this facility's overall score was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform as poorly in nursing. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B- for this area. There are numerous factors within this area. Many of these datapoints reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a much lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's second most respectable score was short-term care. However, with a D in this category, it still fared relatively badly. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to forge a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical nursing home. The last datapoint we assessed in this category is the number of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.3 percent of its patients returning home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the category of long-term care, this nursing home received a grade of just D in that category. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care scores. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

The last category we assessed is inspections. This facility didn't receive glowing inspection reports in recent years. As a result, we had to give it an F. When a place has this bad of an inspection grade, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This particular nursing home had 6 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility also received 25 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
