Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. The nursing score is based on many subcategories, many of which are associated with levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home also didn't rate terribly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a B- for that category, which turned out to be among its higher grades. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to measure a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To offer highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have higher levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. The final item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we awarded this facility a grade of C for its long-term care grade, which isn't too bad of a score. In the category of long-term care, we focus on the amount of services offered by a facility, as opposed to more healthcare-oriented services. One of the criteria we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Turning the final category of inspections, this facility fared very poorly. Sadly, it received an F in our inspection rating. For places with poor inspection grades, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This particular nursing home was assessed 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they posed a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
