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 weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to resident safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's next most respectable score was long-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this area, it still performed relatively badly. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. Once we assessed the amount of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinates 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of short-term care. In calculating these short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Based on its poor rating in this category, we were not stunned to find this place offers substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we scored is nursing, in which this facility was given an abysmal grade in this area also. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is definitely a major concern. The nursing grade assesses several subcategories, however, the paramount consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also didn't perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
