While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L.

Short-term care grades are often employed to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final area we analyzed is long-term care, was this facility's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in that category. This really was one of the couple of dings in a quality report card. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means the facility didn't perform well in our measures relating to patient care. After considering the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 93.85965 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
