Nurse Quality

On top of receiving a terrible overall grade, we also gave this facility poor scores across the board in our category grades. In fact, it received just a D for its nursing score, which is its best category. Our nursing rating analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of licensure of the nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections

Unfortunately, this facility's second best category was the area of inspections. Nevertheless, with just a D in this category, it still performed relatively poorly. Our inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This particular nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was assessed significant government fines amounting to over $100,000. This usually indicates that a facility'spoor performance has been an issue for more than one year.

Short-term Care Quality

Sadly, this facility's third highest score was short-term care. Nevertheless, with a D in this category, it still fared relatively poorly. Our short-term care scores are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Considering its poor rating in this area, we were not shocked to find that this place provided significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

The final area we rated is long-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is a very poor grade. If you are seeking anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 98.723404 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
