Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. There are several datapoints within this category. Many of the subcategories reflect staffing levels. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, while this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared well in this statistic.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

This nursing home did not receive favorable government inspection reports in recent years. In fact, it received just a D for its inspection score, which was unfortunately its second best category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. We would scrutinize the severity of the deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to resident health or safety. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the area of long-term care, this facility was awarded just a D in this area. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means the facility did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 77.38095 percent of its residents. This is several points below what we expected. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's worst category was short-term care, which is the last area we looked at. In this category, we gave this nursing home a grade of D. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The final measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 3.9 percent of its patients returning home.
