Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we didn't rate this facility favorably overall, we did give it an excellent grade in the category of inspections, where it received an A-. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid facilities with too many deficiencies flagged. While this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facility's long-term care score ended up being one of its higher grades. The facility received a grade of C in this area. Our long-term care scores are more important for those in need of more traditional services associated with activities of daily living. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 99.62687 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

As it turns out, this facility only earned a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which is not a very good score. In determining our short-term care scores, we assess a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This rating is frequently a fair measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. 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 metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 5.4 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we looked at was nursing, where this nursing home was given a very poor grade in this category as well. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F for this area, which is definitely very concerning. When determining a facility's nursing grade, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents as well as the levels of training of the nurses. This place offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
