Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Although we were down on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B in nursing. Our nursing score is based on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of those nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's second most favorable area ended up being long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 99.79339 percent of its patients. This place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

We gave this nursing home just a D for our short-term care rating. This is not an impressive grade. In our short-term care score, we seek to craft a valuable measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Given its score in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the measures we assessed. Honestly, this was what we expected here. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics doomed this facility's short-term care grade.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning our last category of inspections, this nursing home received an F here. Since this information is collected by independent government inspectors, we heavily weight negative feedback in this area. When a place has this bad of an inspection score, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to resident safety. This facility was assessed 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility also received 23 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
