Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Although we gave this nursing home a poor overall score, we actually gave it a somewhat respectable score in the category of inspections, where it received a grade of B-. This was better than its other category grades. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Nursing ratings are mostly associated with the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this statistic.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we assessed was short-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B-. Short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last area we scored was long-term care, was this nursing home's least impressive area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this category. Nursing homes that don't fare well in this category typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 75.26132 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
