Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this facility's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home also didn't fare poorly in the category of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a C in that category, which happens to be among its higher scores. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, this place was below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The last measure we considered in this area is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. There are a number of factors within this grade. Most of these datapoints are tied to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home performed well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final category we scored was long-term care, proved to be this nursing home's worst category. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this area. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care may not provide the type of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities offer. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 90.97745 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is slightly below what we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
