Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our best scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively insignificant. This facility received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to be an immediate threat to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

One of this nursing home's more respectable category scores was in the category of long-term care. This proved to be its second best category. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C. For patients seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. One of the criteria we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 85.86667 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Among this nursing home's several poor grades was its F in the area of nursing care. When calculating a facility's nursing rating, we consider the amount of time nurses are seeing patients as well as the skill levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we rated is short-term care. It received a lowly F for this category, which is a very poor grade. In calculating our short-term care scores, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. With a score this poor for this area, we were not surprised to discover that this facility was well below average in two of the key staffing metrics we focus on. It supplied substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
