Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall score, it did receive a respectable nursing grade of B-. There are quite a few subcategories included in this grade. Most of these datapoints reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This figure is far below average. Lastly, nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next most favorable category was short-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of B-. In the area of short-term care, we seek to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The real question is whether this adversely affected quality of care. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 6.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we analyzed was long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a solid grade of B-. Our long-term care scores are more critical for people in need of more traditional assistance related to activities of daily living. After considering the quantity of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 91.89189 percent of its residents for pneumonia. On a more positive note, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Moving on our last category of inspections, this facility received an F here. For nursing homes with poor inspection ratings, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular nursing home had 3 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they posed a risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
