Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

While we gave this facility an abysmal overall grade, we gave it a B- for our nursing category. We assessed the licensure of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of hours those nurses spent with residents, in determining our rating in this area. This facility provided just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics. Although this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of these quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this area. This is typically a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of turning a resident even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Surprisingly, we awarded this facility a C for our short-term care grade, which really isn't a bad grade. In calculating our short-term care grades, we assess a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This rating is often a reliable assessment of a facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Unfortunately, this place was below average in terms of its level of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The important question is whether this adversely affected quality of care. The last measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 3.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Among this facility's alarming category grades was an F for its inspection score. More often than not, this means we found red flags on the nursing home's inspection reports. For places with poor inspection ratings, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a threat to resident health or safety. Finally, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was assessed large government fines in recent years amounting to over $100,000. This usually indicates that a poor performance spanned multiple years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final area we graded is long-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this category, which is a very poor score. For residents in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. After we finished assessing the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility also keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
