Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Although this facility's overall grade was terrible, it actually fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that area, which is one of our better scores. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid places with a list of deficiencies flagged. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this nursing home an F in the category of long-term care. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is typically a bad sign for patient care and it may mean that the place is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 92.30769 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is a bit lower than we anticipated but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home ended up receiving a a very poor score in our short-term care category. It received a lowly F in this category. With our short-term care score, we try to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. With its grade in this category, we weren't surprised to discover that this nursing home was well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the data we looked at. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last category we analyzed is nursing. It received a lowly F in this area, which is a very poor score. There are quite a few criteria included in this grade. Many of these factors reflect the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. This place also had terrible scores in some of the quality-based metrics to pair with its low nursing hours. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than double the national average in this metric. This is quite alarming when you consider that so many pressure ulcers are preventable with better nursing care. This ended up sealing the nursing home's fate of receiving a poor nursing score.
