Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While this facility's overall score was as bad as it gets, it actually performed pretty well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B for that area, which is one of our better scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that have too many deficiencies. Although this place had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home excelled in the area of nursing, where it earned an D. When computing our nursing ratings, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third area we assessed is short-term care. This nursing home's was given a poor short-term care score where it received an F. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to grade a facility's rehabilitation services In order to have high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to feature better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. Based on its abysmal grade in this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this place offered far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 3.8 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we rated is long-term care. This facility was given a very poor grade of F in that area. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means the facility didn't perform well in our measures relating to resident care. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 52.87009 percent of its patients. This is pretty significantly below what we expected. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
