Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. This score is better than this place's overall score. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also want to point out that this facility received a decent grade in our nursing category. We awarded it a grade of B- in the area. Our nursing grade is largely tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, although this nursing home got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this metric.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's next best category was short-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the pack score in this area. Short-term care scores are meaningful for residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The last item we assessed in this category is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last area we analyzed is long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. Our long-term care scores are based in part on the facility's amount of nursing care. This includes a broad range of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine medical services. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 92.56595 percent of its residents. On a more positive note, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
