Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection grades are tied to many pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This particular nursing home received 10 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

One of the other reasons we rated this nursing home so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In fact, nursing turned out to be its second best category grade. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an D. Our nursing rating is largely based on the facility's nurse staffing. This facility averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these metrics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Another issue was the F this nursing home was given in the area of long-term care. Facilities that do not fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. One of the factors we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 93.34601 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the next category, this facility really did not perform very well in this category either. With an abysmal grade of F in short-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a broad scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Given its poor score in this area, we weren't surprised to discover that this facility provided significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final metric we considered in this area is the number of patients that were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 3.5 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below average.
