Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we did not rate this nursing home highly overall, we want to draw your attention to its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this nursing home's higher category grades came in the category of long-term care. This wound up being its second most respectable category. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B-. In the area of long-term care, we focus more on the quantity of services offered by a nursing home, as opposed to more sophisticated services. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinated 96.47059 percent of its residents for pneumonia. This place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Another issue is the F this facility received in the category of short-term care. In crafting our short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to devise a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. With a grade in this range for this category, we were not shocked to find that this facility was well below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. The nursing home provided significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we looked at was nursing, in which this facility was given a poor score here also. We gave it an F in this category, which is definitely a major disappointment. There are a variety of subcategories included in this category. Many of these criteria are tied to the quantity of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. In addition to its below average nursing hours, this place received suboptimal marks in many of the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing ratings. We found that a higher percentage of this facility's patients suffered falls which led to serious injury.
