Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Even though we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B+ for our short-term care score. In computing our short-term care grades, we scrutinize a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This area is more often than not a solid measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

We actually gave this facility a very solid score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we gave it a grade of B- in this category. This is better than many facilities in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Our nursing grade assesses the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we assessed was long-term care, where this nursing home received an abysmal score in this area also. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F for this category, which is definitely very concerning. Nursing homes that do not fare well in long-term care typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 91.90752 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
