Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Although we did not rate this facility favorably overall, we want to draw your attention to its nearly flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A- in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that have a long list of severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

One of this facility's more respectable category scores came in the area of short-term care. This proved to be its second best category. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C. Our short-term care scores are likely more critical for those needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically requires more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The key is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. In calculating our nursing ratings, we weigh both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these statistics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we looked at was long-term care, in which this facility was given a rock bottom score in this category also. Sadly, it received an abysmal F for this area, which is definitely somewhat alarming. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. Once we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. We were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated only 80.79096 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
