Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall score was as bad as it gets, it performed well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. It is generally best to avoid facilities that have a long list of severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Incredibly, we gave this facility a B- for our long-term care score, which is not a bad grade. Long-term care scores are vital for prospective residents in need of personal care. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to a relatively low 13.103448 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this place keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing category analyzes a handful of datapoints, many of which are based on quantities of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This place fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed was short-term care. This facility received an abysmal grade of F in that category. Our short-term care grade is often employed to score a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to provide highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. With its abysmal score in this area, we weren't stunned to discover this nursing home provided far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
