Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it performed well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to be an imminent risk to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We were also surprised to discover that this facility earned a solid long-term care score this year. We gave it a grade of C in that category. For long-term care residents, the primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 99.29578 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is better than most nursing homes. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third category we looked at is short-term care. This nursing home's received a rock-bottom short-term care grade where it was given a lowly F. Our short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Given its poor rating in this area, we were not shocked to learn that this nursing home provides significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most facilities. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. This was not a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 3.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most facilities, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we analyzed was nursing, where this facility received a poor grade in this category also. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is obviously a major disappointment. We assessed the levels of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses worked with patients, in computing our rating in this area. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this facility also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing scores. We looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This facility had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. These metrics hurt this facility's nursing rating significantly.
