Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it earned a relatively impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our better scores in that category with a grade of B+. Arguably the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. It is generally in your best interest to avoid facilities that had a long list of severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 8 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

Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. Nursing grades are largely tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home wound up receiving a a very poor grade in our short-term care area. It received a lowly F in this area. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Turning to our last area, this nursing home didn't fare well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as terrible as it gets. Facilities that receive this kind of score in long-term care may not provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 80.16529 percent of its residents. This is many points below the national average. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.
