Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's next highest area turned out to be its long-term care grade, where it was awarded a C. For prospective patients looking for a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 77.667984 percent of its residents. This is multiple points below what we were hoping for. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

This facility's next best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing score analyzes the facility's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the number of hours spent with patients. This nursing home offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these datapoints to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the fourth area, this nursing home really didn't perform very well in this area either. With a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. In the area of short-term care, we try to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. As you might expect, we learned that this facility provides far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical nursing home. The last item we assessed in this category is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.9 percent of its patients returning home. This was well below the national average.
