Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we didn't grade this facility favorably overall, we did give it an excellent grade in the category of inspections, where it earned a grade of A. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that had a long list of severe deficiencies. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's short-term care grade ended up being one of its higher grades. The facility received a grade of C in this area. In our short-term care category, we endeavor to forge a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the measures we assessed. The critical question is whether this adversely impacted quality of care. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the area of long-term care, this facility was given a grade of just D in that area. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. Once we concluded our assessment of the volume of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinates 98.95833 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home also keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we scored is nursing, where this facility was given a very poor score here as well. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F for this area, which is obviously very concerning. There are quite a few factors included in this grade. Most of these subcategories reflect staffing levels. This facility offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is not a very impressive figure. In addition to its subpar nursing hour totals, this facility also received poor scores in some of the quality-based measures we considered in determining our nursing grades. We found that a higher percentage of this nursing home's residents suffered falls which led to major injury.
