Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B for our inspections category. This grade is far better than the facility's overall grade. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is not a bad score. Nursing ratings are largely based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a somewhat discouraging figure which is well below average. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next highest category came in the area of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a C. In the area of long-term care, we look at the amount of care offered by a facility, as opposed to more sophisticated services. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated 44.639374 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is quite a few points lower than the national average. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to the fourth area, this nursing home really did not perform very well in this area either. With a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is really as terrible as it gets. In calculating our short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is often a reliable assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Not surprisingly, we found that this facility offers far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
