Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it actually earned a very impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best grades in that area with an A-. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
We gave this facility just a D for our long-term care rating and that actually wound up as its second highest category. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 97.27891 percent of its patients against pneumonia. The last statistic we looked at was the nursing home's hospitalization rate. Here we found that this facility did not perform quite as well here, with 1.93 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
Nurse Quality
This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. Nursing scores are based in large part on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 2.6 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Finally, we also looked at a few quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home was above average in two of the major statistics we focus on, with solid scores for avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at is short-term care. This nursing home received a rock bottom grade of F in this area. In our short-term care grade, we seek to create a meaningful measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. With its score in this area, we weren't stunned to discover that this place is well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Honestly, this was about what we expected here. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 29.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
