Facility Inspections

While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection scores are tied to items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. 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.

Short-term Care Quality

We were also pleasantly surprised to learn that this nursing home received a decent short-term care score in our assessment. We awarded it a grade of C in that category. Our short-term care grade is generally used to assess a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide higher levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Long-term care grades are crucial for patients looking for personal care. After considering the quantity of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

The next category we rated is nursing, in which this facility was given a poor score in this category also. It received an abysmal F for this area, which is obviously somewhat alarming. Nursing grades are primarily associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is well below average. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average nursing home.
