Facility Inspections
While we graded this nursing home incredibly poorly overall, it actually received an impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that category with a grade of A. Inspection grades weigh several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid nursing homes with too many severe deficiencies flagged. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home wound up receiving a a very poor grade in our long-term care area. It was given an F in this area. For residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.38 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
Short-term Care Quality
Our third category we graded is short-term care, in which this facility received an F. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. In this place's case, it looks like it offered less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. The final measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 31 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below average.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the final area, this facility did not fare well in this area either. Due to a rock bottom grade of F in nursing, this is about as bad as it gets. In calculating a facility's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents and the level of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 2.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this place also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home.
