Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are relatively insignificant. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. There are a host of subcategories within this category. Many of the criteria are tied to the quantity of 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. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home also didn't rate too badly in the category of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of C in that category, which wound up being among its more favorable scores. Our short-term care scores are probably most important for people requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 3.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we assessed is long-term care. This facility was given an abysmal grade of F in that category. For prospective residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home gave the vaccine to 97.40741 percent of its residents, which is an above average figure. Surprisingly, this place also keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
