Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. Inspection grades account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home only received a D for its short-term care rating, which ended up being one of its better category grades. Our short-term care grades are arguably more critical for people requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its poor rating in this category, we were not stunned to discover that this place offered significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most facilities. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 5.4 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Sadly, this facility received an F for its long-term care grade. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it typically means the facility did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this nursing home vaccinated only 82.178215 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best feature in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to our fourth category, this facility didn't perform well here either. Due to an abysmal grade of F in nursing, this is just about as as uninspiring as it gets. The nursing category weighs a handful of factors, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is well below average. In addition to its subpar nursing hour totals, this facility earned suboptimal scores in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing scores. We found that a higher percentage of this nursing home's residents suffered falls which led to serious injury.

In Wildwood Healthcare Center, 10.62% of Patients use Anti-Psychotic Medication
