Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next most favorable category is long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B-. Long-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's volume of nursing care. This means a vast spectrum of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine medical services. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 93.294464 percent of its patients, which is a bit below what we expected. The last datapoint we assessed was the facility's hospitalization rate. We found that this place had 1.96 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is also below the national average.
Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing score is based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of skill of the nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home offered a meager 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This number is far below average. In addition to its below average nursing hour totals, this nursing home also earned suboptimal marks in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We found that a higher percentage of this facility's residents suffered falls which led to major injury. We believe that many falls could be avoided with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this place receiving a terrible nursing score.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed was short-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in this area. In determining our short-term care ratings, we size up the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This category is frequently a solid assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home provides significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 22 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics sunk this facility's short-term care score.
