Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility received a short-term care score which is stronger than its overall grade. We awarded this nursing home a B+ in this area. In computing these short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. It doesn't look like this facility provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's higher category grades was in the area of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B. Facilities that receive this kind of score in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are well cared for. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 96.521736 percent of its residents. This is a great way to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. In determining a nursing home's nursing rating, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the level of licensure of the nurses. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a somewhat alarming figure which is well below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It scored well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Moving on the final category of inspections, this nursing home did not fare well. It received an F in this category. This dragged this nursing home's overall score down as we heavily weight this category. With nursing homes that received this bad of an inspection grade, we recommend scrutinizing any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility was hit with 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to resident health or safety. Lastly, we also want to point out that this place was assessed large government fines amounting to over $100,000. This generally means that a facility's poor performance spanned several years.
