Cityview Nursing & Rehab Center

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of C. We believe that one of the most important factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This facility had 6 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This tells you that it dodged the more serious categories of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. Our nursing grade analyzes the facility's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the number of hours spent with patients. This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This place performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

This nursing home wound up receiving a a terrible score in our long-term care area. It received an F in this category. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in this category may not provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities offer. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 84.53039 percent of its residents. This is quite a bit lower than the national average. To our surprise, this facility was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

The last category we rated was short-term care, where this facility was given a rock bottom score in this area also. Unfortunately, we gave it an F for this area, which is obviously somewhat alarming. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. With its grade in this category, we weren't surprised to find that this place is well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the figures we assessed. Frankly, this was what we expected here. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
