Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it earned a very impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our better grades in that area with a grade of B. Arguably the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. It is generally in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that had too many severe deficiencies. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. Our nursing rating weighs a handful of components, many of which are based on quantities of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 3.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is below average. This nursing home also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based measures to pair with its weak nursing hours. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and we were quite disappointed. This nursing home was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility ended up receiving a rock-bottom grade in our short-term care category. It was given an F in this area. Our short-term care scores are vital for patients looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a vast scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With a grade of this caliber for this category, we weren't surprised to find this facility was below average in two of the key staffing areas we assess. It supplied far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 37.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the next area, this nursing home didn't fare well here either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is about as terrible as it gets. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care grades. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 97.96954 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
