Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Although we graded this nursing home extremely poorly overall, it received a somewhat respectable nursing score this year. We gave it a B- in this category. In calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we assess the amount of time nurses are seeing patients and the skill levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This figure is significantly below the national average. Finally, while this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this metric.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility also didn't fare poorly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we awarded it a grade of C in that area, which turned out to be another one of its more favorable scores. With our short-term care score, we seek to craft a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, this place was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The last measure we looked at in this category is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we gave this nursing home a grade of C for its long-term care score, which is not too bad of a score. In our long-term care assessment, we look at the sheer quantity of services offered by a nursing home, along with some qualitative statistics. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to only 89.1791 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Moving on the last category of inspections, this nursing home had an abysmal showing. It received an F in our inspection rating. This is our most heavily weighted category in our overall grading system. For places with poor inspection ratings, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they created a risk to patient health or safety. 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.
