Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's higher category grades came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a B. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. 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. This facility provided the vaccine to 93.396225 percent of its patients, which is somewhat below what we anticipated. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. Nursing ratings are largely based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facility's weakest area was short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. Sadly, it received an abysmal F in this category. Even with a few decent grades in other areas, this score is still of a concern so we would like to to draw your attention to it. With our short-term care category, we strive to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Based on its score in this area, we weren't surprised to discover that this place was well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we looked at. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents that returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
