Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While we were not very complementary of this nursing home's overall score, it received a very impressive inspection report this year. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with an A+. Inspection scores weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid nursing homes with a list of severe deficiencies flagged. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home only received a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which turns out to be one of its more favorable category grades. In the category of short-term care, we try to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. With a score of this caliber in this area, we weren't surprised to discover that this facility was below average in many staffing metrics we looked at. The facility offered substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. When computing a facility's nursing grade, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This place provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to our next category, this nursing home did not perform well in this area either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as as uninspiring as it gets. Nursing homes that don't fare well in this category typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility administered the vaccine to only 88.26816 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
