Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good grade in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that area, which is one of our better scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid facilities that have too many severe 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. In spite of this deficiency, this place still received a relatively favorable report.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's short-term care grade ended up being one of its better scores. The nursing home was given a B- in this category. Our short-term care grade is often employed to assess a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to offer good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Long-term Care Quality
We awarded this facility just a D for our long-term care rating. This is not a score to write home about. For prospective patients seeking a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 98.78683 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.07 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
The next area we rated is nursing, ended up being this facility's weakest category. We awarded this facility a D in that area. We scrutinized the levels of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses worked with residents, in computing our score in this category. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This facility performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
