Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. We believe that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially focus on the severity of the deficiencies. This facility was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to be an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this facility a rock-bottom F in the category of short-term care. Short-term care grades are crucial for individuals in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Given its grade in this area, we were not surprised to discover that this nursing home is well below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the figures we assessed. Honestly, this was about what we expected here. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 5.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This particular place averaged a meager 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This statistic is significantly below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This facility fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the last category, this facility really did not perform very well here either. With a rock bottom grade of F in long-term care, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this facility administered the vaccine to only 62.412586 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
