Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

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 B-. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility also didn't rate poorly in the area of long-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of B- in that category, which ended up being among its more respectable grades. In the area of long-term care, we weigh the amount of services provided by a facility, as opposed to more healthcare-oriented services. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 93.35821 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be somewhat lower than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Nursing grades are primarily associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the final area, this nursing home really did not fare well here either. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. Our short-term care scores are crucial for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing. This includes a broad range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as 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 considered the number of residents that were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
