Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall grade, it did receive a respectable government inspection report this year. It received a decent score in that category with a B-. We believe that one of the most important factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. 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.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also ended up giving this facility a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B-. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with a facility's level 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. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses aids to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a decent grade in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This area is typically a reliable assessment of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final item we considered in this area is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we looked at was long-term care. We gave this nursing home a B- in this category. For prospective residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 94.82758 percent of its residents. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
