Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Neither this facility's overall score nor its category scores gave us anything to write home about. This place's best category was nursing, but even there it received a D. This is still a well below average score. We assessed the licensure of nurses at the facility, in addition to the number of hours those nurses worked with patients, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

This nursing home earned a grade of just D in the area of inspections. Unfortunately, this ended up being its second best grade. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. Generally, you should be more cautious when considering a nursing home with severe deficiencies on a recent inspection report. This particular facility was assessed 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a threat to resident safety or health. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Additionally, we gave this nursing home an F in the area of long-term care. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in this category it is a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the facility is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 44.791668 percent of its patients. This is pretty significantly lower than average. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last category we analyzed is short-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in this area. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we learned that this place offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.4 percent of its patients returning home.
