Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies an imminent threat to resident safety or health. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Incredibly, we gave this facility a B- for its long-term care score, which really isn't a bad grade. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 98.82353 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We were surprised to find that this facility also excelled in the category of nursing. We awarded it an impressive grade of D for that category, which is one of our highest grades. The nursing score weighs a number of datapoints. The most important factor is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. This nursing home averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we looked at is short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a D in that category. In calculating these short-term care scores, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The objective is to create a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Considering its grade in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the measures we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected here. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
