Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall grade, it did receive a respectable nursing grade of B-. We scrutinized the qualifications of nurses employed by the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses were with residents, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a relatively low total compared with most other facilities. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this nursing home a respectable score in the area of short-term care, with a B-. In calculating our short-term care scores, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The goal is to devise a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The third area we looked at was long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a solid grade of C. Long-term care grades are generally used to score a nursing home's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a skilled nursing facility. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.68421 percent of its patients. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Moving on the final category of inspections, this ended up being this facility's weakest link. Inspection ratings are based on a facility's recent government inspections. We gave this nursing home a D in this category, which is not a very good grade. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. This nursing home had 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they posed a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
