Nurse Quality

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our nursing rating. The nursing score considers a variety of subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This facility provided just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, our nursing ratings also consider quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

This nursing home also didn't fare poorly in the category of short-term care. Indeed, we awarded it a B- for that category, which ended up being among its better scores. In our short-term care score, we strive to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze the nursing home's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The more important thing is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of patients who returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Long-term Care Quality

This facility also didn't perform too badly in the category of long-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of C for that area, which is another one of its more favorable grades. In determining our long-term care scores, we size up the assistance with daily living offered to a nursing home's patients. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 94.565216 percent of its patients. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Moving on our last category of inspections, this facility received an F in this area. We would advise paying close attention to any deficiencies on a nursing home's inspection reports when it receives this poor of an inspection score. We recommend you scrutinize the severity of the deficiencies. This facility was assessed 8 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
