Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The primary reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that area, with an A-. This is a much better grade than the place's overall grade, which was decent but certainly not elite. Our inspection scores are tied to many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's more favorable category scores was in the category of short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. In our short-term care rating, we endeavor to create a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this area is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility's third best category was long-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this category, it still performed somewhat poorly. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this nursing home vaccinated just 68.852455 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to our next category, this nursing home really did not perform well. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in nursing, this is this facility's worst area. When computing our nursing ratings, we assess both staffing levels and the training levels of those nurses. This place provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. This place also had terrible scores in some of the quality-based measures to pair with its weak nursing hours. For starters, we looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than double the national average in this datapoint.
