Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our nursing rating. Our nursing grade includes quite a few datapoints, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Incredibly, we gave this facility a grade of C for its short-term care grade, which isn't too bad of a score. In the category of short-term care, we try to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its level of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the measures we assessed. The critical question is whether this also affected quality of care. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

This nursing home did not receive favorable inspection reports in recent years. In fact, it only received a grade of D for its inspection grade. One of the more significant factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We recommend you pay close attention to the severity of the deficiencies. This facility was hit with 7 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to patient 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final category we looked at was long-term care, which was this nursing home's weakest category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this category. Nursing homes that don't fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine healthcare services we assessed. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. Unfortunately, this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 39.525692 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
