Facility Inspections
While we gave this place a poor overall grade, we gave it a B+ for our inspections rating. This was the result of the nursing home receiving a decent inspection report this year. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid facilities with too many severe deficiencies flagged. This facility was hit with 9 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing score is largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. With only 2.7 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below average. Unfortunately, this place also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based measures to go along with its low nursing hour totals. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and we were disappointed. This place was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in this area. This is likely a bad sign in light of the fact that many bed sores are preventable with better nursing care. This statistic helped pull down this facility's nursing rating significantly.
Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its short-term care grade. In our short-term care score, we endeavor to create a valuable measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this facility provides significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 36.7 percent of its patients returning home.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored was long-term care, in which this nursing home was given an abysmal score in this area also. Unfortunately, we gave it an F for this category, which is definitely a major disappointment. Nursing homes that do not fare well in long-term care typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home gave the vaccine to only 61.74636 percent of its patients, which is a bit of a concern. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 1.21 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
