Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this nursing home'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 grade of B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection ratings are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's next highest category was long-term care, but even there it received a grade of just D in that category. This ended up being a well below average score. When facilities receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 76 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.

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. Nursing grades are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. This place provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This number is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we looked at is short-term care. This facility was given a bottom of the barrel grade of F in this area. In our short-term care grade, we try to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Given its score in this area, we weren't stunned to discover that this place is well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we looked at. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
