Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

While this place's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually received a slightly more favorable grade in the category of inspections. We awarded it a grade of B- for this category, which is not bad. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing rating analyzes the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of the nurses and the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a relatively low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next highest area we awarded this nursing home in any category came in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. In calculating these short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to devise a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. The final metric we assessed in this category is the number of residents who returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last area we rated was long-term care. In this category, we gave this facility a B-. Long-term care scores are essential for patients needing personal care. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 88.996765 percent of its residents. This is multiple points less than what we expected. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
