Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

While this facility's overall grade was not favorable, it surprisingly earned a very good score in long-term care. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Our nursing grade is largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a low total compared to most other nursing homes. Finally, our nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

This facility received slightly below average inspections in recent years. We gave them a C in this category. Our inspection scores are based on many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. This nursing home had 2 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but fortunately none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This indicates that it avoided the more ominous classes of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received some government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to our next category, we awarded this facility a grade of D for our short-term care category. This was the facility's worst category rating. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. With its score in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this facility was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the figures we assessed. Honestly, this was about what we expected here. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
