Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we did not rate this facility highly overall, we want to draw your attention to its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite insignificant. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next best category is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this area. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility vaccinated 99.57627 percent of its residents, which is a very solid datapoint. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the category of short-term care, this nursing home was awarded just a D in this area. Short-term care grades are commonly employed to grade a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation To provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Considering its score in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the figures we assessed. Honestly, this was about what we expected to find. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The final area we graded is nursing. This nursing home received a poor grade of F in this area. Nursing scores are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility offered just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
