Long-term Care Quality
Even though we gave this place an awful overall score, we awarded it a B- for our long-term care rating. Long-term care grades assess a facility's personal care rather than the highly skilled nursing or medical services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is an above average datapoint. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 1.57 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes.
Short-term Care Quality
Remarkably, we gave this nursing home a grade of C for its short-term care score, which is not too bad of a score. In the category of short-term care, we seek to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. In fact, we found that it outperformed the majority of facilities with 49.9 percent of its patients returning home. This is a higher rate than most nursing homes.
Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing score is based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of skill of the nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home offered a meager 3.1 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This number is far below average. In addition to its below average nursing hour totals, this nursing home also earned suboptimal marks in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We found that a higher percentage of this facility's residents suffered falls which led to major injury. We believe that many falls could be avoided with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this place receiving a terrible nursing score.
Facility Inspections
The last category we looked at is inspections. Unfortunately, this ended up being this facility's worst grade. We gave it a D in this area. Since this information is compiled by independent government inspectors, we weight it heavily in our overall grade. Inspection grades factor in many items found on the nursing home's inspection reports. If you find too many deficiencies on the inspection reports, this is typically the worst sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. This facility had 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
