Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we did not rate this facility well overall, we would like to point out its decent inspections in recent years. We awarded it a somewhat respectable score of B- in this area. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this nursing home's better category grades came in the category of long-term care. This turned out to be its second most respectable category. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of B-. Long-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of nursing services. This includes a vast scope of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine medical services. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated only 59.558823 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of C. We weighed the qualifications of nurses working for the facility, as well as the number of hours the nurses were with patients, in calculating our grade in this category. This facility provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure which is well below the national average. Finally, while this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared well in this statistic.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last area we looked at is short-term care, turned out to be this nursing home's worst area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that category. Our short-term care scores are crucial for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing. This means a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its poor score in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home offers significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
