Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we did not rate this facility well overall, we want to point out its decent government inspection reports in recent years. We awarded it a relatively respectable grade of B- in this category. We believe that one of the most important factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report, which is still very impressive. Another area of concern is that CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also ended up giving this facility a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B-. Our nursing rating is largely associated with a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, nursing ratings also factor in quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this facility a solid grade in the category of short-term care, with a B-. Short-term care grades are generally used to measure a facility's rehabilitation services In order to have highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we looked at was long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in that category. Our long-term care grades are pivotal for individuals seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. One of the data points we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 97.23757 percent of its patients. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
