Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home surprisingly fared well in the category of short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B for that area. In crafting our short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to formulate a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

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 scores are primarily associated with the facility's nurse staffing. With a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this facility's nurse staffing levels were well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This facility performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

This nursing home received a grade of just D in the area of inspections. One of the most important factors in evaluating inspection reports is deficiencies. We would pay close attention to the level of severity of the deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility also received 36 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to our final area, this facility really did not fare well here either. With a very poor grade of F in long-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
