Nurse Quality

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our nursing rating. There are several factors included in this grade. Most of the subcategories are tied to staffing levels. This facility provided just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. It scored well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility also didn't grade out poorly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we awarded it a grade of B- for that area, which ended up being another one of its higher grades. With our short-term care category, we seek to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze a facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Sadly, this nursing home only received a D for its long-term care grade, which is not a score to write home about. Long-term care grades in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 87.97251 percent of its residents. This is multiple points less than what we were hoping for. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.

Facility Inspections

The final category we assessed is inspections. This nursing home did not receive positive government inspections in recent years. In fact, we gave it an F in this category. For nursing homes with bad inspection ratings, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This facility was hit with 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a threat to resident safety or health. 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.
