Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we gave it a B- for our short-term care rating. Our short-term care grade is generally used to gauge a facility's rehabilitation services. To offer highly rated rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to feature higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The hope is that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 6.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. This figure was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility an C. There are a host of criteria within this category. Most of the datapoints reflect staffing levels. This place provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

This nursing home received a lowly F for its inspection score. This is a particularly important category. Scores in this range typically point to red flags on the nursing home's government inspection reports. You should pay close attention to any deficiencies on a facility's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection grade. We recommend you pay close attention to the severity of the deficiencies. This facility was hit with a category J through K deficiency, which are among the worst deficiencies. This generally means that CMS uncovered a deficiency which puts patient safety or health in imminent danger. We are also concerned by the fact that this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we analyzed is long-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this area, which is a poor score. Facilities that do not score well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 93.67088 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be slightly lower than we anticipated but still a decent figure. Surprisingly, this facility was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
