Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. It is generally best to avoid facilities that had too many severe deficiencies. This place was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home received its next best category grade in the category of short-term care. We gave this facility a grade of C in this area, which is a reasonably acceptable score. In our short-term care grade, we endeavor to create a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the area of long-term care, this nursing home was given a grade of just D in that area. Nursing homes that don't fare well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 92.46575 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is somewhat below what we anticipated but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The final category we analyzed is nursing, where this facility was given a poor grade in this category also. It received an abysmal F in this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. Our nursing score is largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This place provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is an alarmingly low total. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of patients experiencing pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
