Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B for our nursing rating. Nursing scores are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we awarded this facility a grade of C for our long-term care score, which really isn't too bad of a score. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. One of the statistics we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 97.53695 percent of its patients. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

This nursing home really didn't perform terribly in inspections. In fact, we gave it a C for that category. Other categories turned out to be the source of this nursing home's bottom of the barrel overall grade. Inspection grades 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 facility was hit with 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This tells you inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent danger to resident health or safety. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received some government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we rated is short-term care, where this nursing home received a rock bottom score in this category also. It received an F for this area, which is definitely very concerning. Our short-term care grade is typically used to gauge a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to have highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Given its abysmal rating in this category, we weren't shocked to learn that this facility offers far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 2.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
