Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Even though this facility's overall grade was rock bottom, it didn't perform as poorly in the area of nursing. In fact, we awarded it a C for this area. In calculating a facility's nursing rating, we look at the amount of time nurses commit to residents and the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the number of hours of care offered.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Sadly, this facility's second best category was inspections, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. We recommend you scrutinize the level of severity of those deficiencies. This particular facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a risk to patient safety or health. Lastly, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home received large government fines of over $50,000. This often indicates that government inspectors became fed up after several years of failed inspections.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of long-term care. Nursing homes that don't score well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we assessed. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 74.242424 percent of its residents. This is multiple points below what we were hoping for. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The final category we graded was short-term care. This facility was given an abysmal grade of F in this category. In crafting these short-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Considering its score in this area, we were not stunned to discover that this place is well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the data we assessed. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
