Facility Inspections

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a C for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. Our inspection scores are based on many pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were category G through L deficiencies. This tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. This proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this facility an F. When determining a facility's nursing rating, we assess the number of hours nurses are seeing patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. 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. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Another concern is the F this facility was given in the area of short-term care. Our short-term care scores are arguably more critical for people requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. With its score in this category, we were not surprised to discover that this place is well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we assessed is long-term care. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this category, which is a poor grade. For prospective residents looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is a very respectable percentage. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
