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. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

Short-term Care Quality

As it turns out, this nursing home only received a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which is actually one of its more respectable category scores. In calculating our short-term care scores, we size up a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This grade is more often than not a useful measure of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home provides substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical nursing home. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.

Nurse Quality

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. In computing our nursing scores, we weigh both nursing hours and the training levels of the nurses. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This place fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Switching gears to our last area, this facility did not perform very well here either. With a very poor grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. Once we assessed the amount of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
