Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall grade, it did receive a respectable nursing grade of B-. Our nursing score weighs a handful of datapoints, however, the main consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a relatively low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses to assist its patients.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's short-term care rating appears to be one of its best grades. The nursing home was given a B- in this category. Short-term care grades are commonly used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The question is whether this also affected quality of care. The final metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility received its next best category score in the area of long-term care. We gave this facility a B- in this area, which is a decent grade. Long-term care grades focus on a facility's personal care instead of the highly skilled nursing or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 97.1246 percent of its residents. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

The last category we assessed is inspections. The nursing home received a C in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. This facility had 2 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but fortunately none were category G through L deficiencies. This tells you inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
