Facility Inspections
Grade: B-minus
While we did not rate this facility well overall, we wanted to point out its decent inspection reports in recent years. We awarded it a somewhat respectable grade of B- in that area. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of the deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient safety or health. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: B-minus
This facility's short-term care grade is one of its respectable grades. The facility was awarded a B- in this area. Short-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its level of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Grade: B-minus
This facility's next best area turned out to be its long-term care score, where it received a grade of B-. In the area of long-term care, we look at the amount of care provided by a facility, as opposed to more healthcare-oriented services. After considering the amount of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 99.68454 percent of its residents against pneumonia. This place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Nurse Quality
Grade: C
Our last area is nursing, in which we gave this facility a grade of C in this category. We looked at the licensure of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the quantity of time the nurses were with residents, in determining our score in this area. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a relatively low total compared with most facilities. Finally, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.
