Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a C 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. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This means inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an D. Our nursing rating is mostly tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This place offered only 0.2 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home's third highest score was short-term care. However, with a D in this category, it still performed relatively badly. In computing these short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to create a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our fourth area, this facility really did not fare well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. For patients in need of a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is better than the average nursing home. Surprisingly, this facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
