Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

While we didn't give this nursing home a good overall grade, we actually gave it a strong grade for short-term care, where it earned a B. Our short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 4.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also want to point out that this facility received a decent grade in our nursing category. We awarded it a grade of B- in the area. Nursing scores are primarily associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually a reliable indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses aids to assist its residents.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility received its third highest category grade in the category of long-term care. We gave this nursing home a C in this area, which is a reasonably acceptable grade. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 91.735535 percent of its residents. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning the last category of inspections, this nursing home fared very poorly. Sadly, it received an F in our inspection category. When a place has this bad of an inspection grade, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to the well being of residents. This facility had 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a risk to patient health or safety. Lastly, we want to point out that this nursing home was assessed large government fines in recent years of over $100,000. This generally suggests that a nursing home's bad track record spanned several years.
