Facility Inspections
Although we did not rate this nursing home well overall, we want to point out its decent health inspections in recent years. We awarded it a somewhat respectable score of B- in that category. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Another red flag is that 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.
Nurse Quality
We also ended up giving this facility a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B-. Nursing grades are largely associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. According to its staffing data, this nursing home provided an average of 4.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. Roughly one fourth of this care came from registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. Both of these figures are higher than average. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in some quality-focused statistics. Specifically, we look at the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these statistics as reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
