Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection grades account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Tragically, this facility received an F for its short-term care grade. Short-term care scores are important for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing. This includes a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With its grade in this area, we were not surprised to discover that this facility is well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The final item we looked at in this category is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.4 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third area we assessed is long-term care, in which this facility received an F. For residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important. After we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 98.43137 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home also keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last category we analyzed was nursing. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is a bottom of the barrel score. The nursing grade assesses quite a few subcategories, but the most important consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this facility also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home. This may be a bad sign when you consider that many falls and bed sores are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. These statistics pulled down this nursing home's nursing rating quite a bit.
