Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The primary reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our better grades in that area, with an A. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a middle of the pack score in the area of long-term care, with a B-. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 98.99666 percent of its residents, which is better than most nursing homes. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we assessed is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a C in this category. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most meaningful for residents in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The real question is whether this adversely affected quality of care. The last metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The final area we graded is nursing, which turned out to be a weak link for this nursing home. We awarded this facility a grade of just D for the area of nursing. We assessed the skill-level of nurses at the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time those nurses worked with residents, in computing our grade in this area. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is an alarmingly low total. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This nursing home had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average facility.
