Long-term Care Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B for our long-term care rating. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.6 percent of its patients, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is often a deadly condition for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home doesn't take any chances. The last datapoint we assessed was the nursing home's hospitalization rate. Here we found that this place had 1.86 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is middle of the pack in this area.
Nurse Quality
We were also surprised to find that this facility received a decent nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of C in that category. The nursing score includes many factors, but the paramount one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based metrics, such as minimizing major falls. This place performed admirably in this datapoint. Avoiding serious falls is often an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Some falls can be prevented if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second worse score is short-term care, where it earned a grade of just D in that area. This is a well below average grade. Short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. It performed better in this area, with 50.2 percent of its residents returning home.
Facility Inspections
The last category we looked at was inspections. This facility didn't receive glowing government inspection reports in recent years. Consequently, we had to give it an F in this category. When a facility has this bad of an inspection score, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. This particular nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a risk to patient safety or health. Finally, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received large government fines in recent years of over $50,000. This often indicates that government inspectors became frustrated after several years of failed inspections.
