Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our short-term care rating. In forming our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to create a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We were surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. The facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The last measure we assessed in this category is the number of patients who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. Our nursing grade is largely associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This place provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

This place received a lowly F for its inspection grade. This is an important category. Grades in this range generally point to some red flags on the nursing home's inspections. For facilities that received this bad of an inspection grade, we would scrutinize the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a risk to patient safety or health. Lastly, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received large government fines recently of more than $100,000. This often suggests that a nursing home's bad track record spanned several years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we scored is long-term care, where this facility was given a poor score in this category also. We gave it a lowly F for this area, which is obviously a major concern. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
