Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While we were fairly low on this facility overall, we awarded it a grade of A for our inspections rating. This score is significantly more impressive than the nursing home's overall score. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid nursing homes that have a long list of deficiencies. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's second most favorable category was short-term care, but it nevertheless received just a D in that category. This turns out to be a relatively poor grade. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a fair measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average nursing home. The last measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.3 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

We were surprised to find that this nursing home also excelled in the area of nursing. We awarded it a score of D for that category, which is one of our best grades. In computing our nursing grades, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Moving on to our next category, this nursing home really did not fare well here either. With a rock bottom grade of F in long-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 89.52879 percent of its patients. This is quite a bit below what we were hoping for. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.
