Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Although we didn't grade this nursing home favorably overall, we did give it an excellent grade in the category of inspections, where it earned an A. Our inspection grades are based on pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid nursing homes that have severe deficiencies associated with endangerment of patients. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's next best category was long-term care. As it turns out, with a D in this category, it still fared somewhat badly. Facilities that don't fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we assessed. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home administered the vaccine to a relatively low 77.14285 percent of its patients, which is a bit of a concern. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's next highest category is short-term care. However, with a D in this area, it still performed relatively badly. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With its weak rating in this area, we were not stunned to find this nursing home provides substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. The final metric we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The final category we graded is nursing. This nursing home received a poor grade of F in this area. There are a host of data points within this area. Many of these factors relate to levels of nurse staffing. With just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these metrics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
