Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Although we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections category. This score is much better than the place's overall grade. Inspection scores are tied to many pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid facilities that have severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. This facility was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility was given its next most favorable category grade in the category of short-term care. We gave this nursing home a B- in this category, which is an acceptable grade. In computing our short-term care scores, we analyze the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This grade is considered to be a fair assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. The hope is that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. The final metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Nursing grades are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home averaged just 0.7 hours of nursing care per resident daily. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we assessed is long-term care. This facility was given a very poor grade of F in that category. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is an above average datapoint. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
