Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection ratings are based on datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid facilities that have severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
We were also surprised to find that this facility earned a reasonably solid long-term care rating this year. We awarded it a grade of C in this area. Our long-term care grade assesses a nursing home's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled therapy and healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinates 99.54751 percent of its patients against pneumonia. The last statistic we assessed was its hospitalization rate. Here we found that this facility had 3.06 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. While this figure is somewhat concerning, this statistic may be skewed for some facilities due to the medical complexity of residents.
Short-term Care Quality
Our third area we analyzed was short-term care, in which this nursing home was given an F. In determining our short-term care grades, we scrutinize the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This category is typically a meaningful measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Considering its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to find that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the figures we assessed. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 26 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The final area we graded was nursing. We gave it an abysmal F in this area, which is a rock bottom grade. In determining our nursing ratings, we look at both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This place provided only 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is not a very impressive figure. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this place also didn't perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average nursing home.
