Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report. Another area of concern is that 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.
Long-term Care Quality
Incredibly, we gave this nursing home a grade of B- for its long-term care rating, which really isn't too bad of a score. Long-term care grades assess a facility's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled nursing or medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility administered the vaccine to 99.49622 percent of its patients, which is a very respectable datapoint. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this nursing home had 2.66 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, this figure was not quite as favorable than its other scores in this category.
Nurse Quality
Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. Our nursing score is primarily associated with a nursing home's nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. This facility performed admirably in this subcategory.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the last area, this nursing home didn't perform well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. Short-term care scores are critical for patients looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more skilled nursing services. This means a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Considering its abysmal rating in this category, we weren't surprised to learn this place offered far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The last measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 19.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care grade.
