Facility Inspections

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a C for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were category G through L deficiencies. This tells you this facility avoided the more ominous categories of deficiencies. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an D. Our nursing score analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

We gave this nursing home just a D for our long-term care rating. This is not a very good score. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated 41.836735 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is significantly less than what we were hoping for. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we graded was short-term care, which is a weak link for this nursing home. We gave this facility a grade of D in the area of short-term care. In the category of short-term care, we seek to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The last measure we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar statistics sunk this nursing home's short-term care grade.
