Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we gave this nursing home a terrible overall score, we gave it an A for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid places with a list of deficiencies flagged. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home only earned a grade of D for its long-term care grade, which turns out to be one of its more respectable category grades. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it typically means the facility didn't perform well in our measures relating to patient care. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We found that this facility administered the vaccine to just 90.08264 percent of its patients, which is slightly concerning. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home ended up receiving a a terrible grade in our short-term care area. It was given a lowly F in this category. Short-term care grades are typically used to grade a facility's performance with rehabilitation In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Considering its score in this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this nursing home is well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected here. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we rated is nursing. We gave it an F for this category, which is an abysmal score. Our nursing score is based on many data points, many of which are tied to nursing hours. This facility offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is well below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
