Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This nursing home was assessed 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. Our nursing grade is primarily based on the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 3.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at a few quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This facility was above average in two of the major statistics we focus on, including minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility wound up receiving a an abysmal score in our short-term care area. It received an F in this area. In our short-term care category, we attempt to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze the nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Considering its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to discover that this place was well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the measures we looked at. Finally, we looked at the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 39.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the final category, this facility didn't perform well in this area either. With a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is really as bad as it gets. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home also keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.94 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
