Facility Inspections

Grade: F

This place did not receive any favorable scores. Its most concerning grade may be its inspection rating, where it received an F. For places with bad inspection ratings, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility had 4 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we need to point out that this place was assessed large government fines in recent years amounting to more than $100,000. This often suggests that a nursing home's bad track record has been an issue for more than one year.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facility ended up receiving a an abysmal score in our long-term care category. It was given a lowly F in this category. When facilities receive this type of grade in long-term care it is typically a bad sign for patient care and it may mean that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. We were disappointed to learn that this facility vaccinated only 38.60294 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Another unfortunate development is the F this nursing home was given in the area of short-term care. With our short-term care score, we strive to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we rated is nursing. This nursing home was given a poor grade of F in this area. We analyzed the qualifications of nurses at the facility, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses worked with residents, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.
