Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Although this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good grade in the area of inspections. We gave it a B for that category, which is one of our better grades. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facilities next best category is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this area. This is basically a slightly below average grade in this category. Long-term care scores are based on the facility's amount of care. This means a broad spectrum of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. This facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's third most favorable category turned out to be its short-term care score, where it received a C. With our short-term care rating, we seek to create a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess the nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, this place was below average in terms of its level of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next area we looked at was nursing, which proved to be this facility's worst category. We gave this facility a D in this category. In calculating our nursing scores, we look at both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This particular facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is well below average. Unfortunately, this place also had abysmal scores in some of the quality-based metrics to go along with its low nursing hours. We looked at the percent of patients suffering pressure ulcers and we were very disappointed. This place was at roughly 1.5 times the national average in this metric.
