Facility Inspections

Grade: B

While we graded this nursing home incredibly poorly overall, it earned a very impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our more favorable grades in that category with a grade of B. Inspection grades are tied to many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. This nursing home received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing rating is primarily tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. With a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second worse category is long-term care, where it earned just a D in that category. This is a well below average grade. Facilities that receive this type of score in this category may not provide the type of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities provide. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this nursing home vaccinated just 89.44954 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next category we graded was short-term care. Sadly, it received an F in this category, which is an abysmal grade. In calculating our short-term care scores, we look at the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is more often than not a fair assessment of a facility's rehabilitation. As you might expect, we found that this place offers substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
