Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we gave this facility a terrible overall score, we gave it a B- for our nursing rating. Our nursing rating is mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We were also pleasantly surprised to discover that this nursing home earned a somewhat respectable long-term care rating in our assessment. We awarded it a B- in this area. In a long-term care environment, the 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. After we finished assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. We were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated only 58.317024 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We were also stunned to discover that this nursing home earned a reasonably solid short-term care score in our assessment. We gave it a C in that area. In our short-term care category, we endeavor to craft a fair measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess a facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. We found that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. The facility offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning to our final category of inspections, this facility received a grade that's as bad as it gets. We weight this category more heavily than our other categories. For nursing homes with poor inspection ratings, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility was hit with 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they posed a threat to resident safety or health. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
