Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Although we gave this nursing home a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a C for our nursing category. Nursing ratings are based largely on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We were also stunned to find that this facility earned a somewhat respectable long-term care grade this year. We gave it a C in this category. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 97.567566 percent of its residents, which is higher than most nursing homes. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home wound up receiving a a very poor score in our short-term care area. It was given a lowly F in this category. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to measure a facility's performance with rehabilitation To offer high-end rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. As you might expect, we learned that this place offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was quite a bit below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning the last category of inspections, this facility fared very poorly. It received an F in our inspection category. This happens to be our most heavily weighted category in our overall scoring system. For nursing homes with bad inspection scores, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a risk 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.
