Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home received a nursing score which is stronger than its overall grade. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing score is based on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong short-term care score. Indeed, we awarded it a B in that category, which happens to be one of our better. Short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home's next highest category is long-term care. Nevertheless, with a D in this area, it still performed somewhat badly. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. Once we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were a bit alarmed this nursing home vaccinated only 87.251 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best score in this category.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Moving on the final category of inspections, this ended up being this nursing home's weakest link. Inspection grades are based on a facility's recent government inspection reports. We gave this nursing home a D in this category, which is not a very good grade. Our inspection grades account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. This particular nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we need to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed large government fines of more than $50,000. This typically means that inspectors grew tired after multiple years of failed inspections.
