Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we were not high on this facility's overall performance, it did receive an impressive inspection report this year with few dings from the applicable government inspectors. As a result, it received one of our better grades in that area with a B+. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This tells you CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best area ended up being its short-term care grade, where it was awarded a B-. With our short-term care rating, we seek to forge a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical facility. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. When calculating a facility's nursing rating, we consider the amount of time nurses spend with residents as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This particular nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is far below average. Lastly, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics. While this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of these quality measures. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this statistic. This can be an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving residents more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we assessed is long-term care. We gave it a lowly F in this area, which is a bottom of the barrel grade. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. After considering the volume of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. We were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated only 85.92057 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
