Quick Details
Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we did not rate this facility well overall, we want to point out its decent grade of B- in the category of nursing. Our nursing score analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of training of those nurses and the amount of time spent with patients. Based on the CMS data, this nursing home offers 3.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in some quality-focused statistics. Specifically, we look at the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these areas as good indicators of the quality of nursing care, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's short-term care grade is one of its respectable features. The facility received a B- in this category. Short-term care grades are generally used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This nursing home elevated its grade in this category by offering more care from registered nurses to its residents than the average facility. The final measure we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that it was above average in this metric with 53.6 percent of its patients returning home.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest category turned out to be its long-term care grade, where it was given a grade of B-. For patients looking for a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 97.515526 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Lastly, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this place had 3.08 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Although this figure is somewhat concerning, this number may be skewed for some nursing homes due to the medical complexity of residents.
Facility Inspections
The last category we assessed is inspections. The facility received a grade of C in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were in categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent danger to resident safety or health. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
