Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it earned an impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in that category with an A. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we gave this facility an F. There are a variety of criteria within this category. Many of the datapoints relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This facility provided 3.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is below the national average. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also didn't fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This nursing home had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its long-term care grade. For patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. One of the datapoints we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 96.992485 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.69 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our final category, this nursing home didn't fare very well in this category either. With a very poor grade of F in short-term care, this is really as terrible as it gets. In determining our short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this facility offers substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 35.3 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
