Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Although we did not give this facility a good overall grade, we surprisingly gave it a strong score in long-term care, where it earned a B. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure residents are kept in good health. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 89.0411 percent of its residents. This is somewhat below what we anticipated. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Remarkably, this facility actually received a good grade in inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Few facilities that were this poor overall received multiple category grades of this caliber. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its short-term care grade. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents that returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we looked at is nursing. We gave it a lowly F in this category, which is a rock bottom grade. Our nursing score is based on a variety of data points. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses 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. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this place also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This nursing home had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many falls and bed sores are preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, these scores hurt this facility's nursing rating quite a bit.
