Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Although this facility's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good score in our short-term care category. We awarded it a B+ for that category, which is one of our better scores. This was a rare highlight in an otherwise lacking profile. Our short-term care grades are considered to be more critical for residents in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes additional skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of B-. Our nursing grade is largely associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a somewhat concerning figure which is well below average. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this facility didn't receive glowing inspections in recent years. We gave it a grade of just D for our inspections rating. One of the more important factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We recommend you scrutinize the severity of those deficiencies. This particular nursing home was hit with 6 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we want to point out that this place received large government fines amounting to more than $100,000. This often suggests that a nursing home's bad performance has been an issue for several years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final area we analyzed was long-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's worst category. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this area. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in this category it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may mean that the place is not as well-staffed. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We were a bit concerned this facility gave the vaccine to only 63.839287 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best score in this category.
