Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
Long-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home only earned a D for its long-term care rating, which happens to be one of its more favorable category scores. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it generally means the nursing home did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. After we finished assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 91.07143 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.

In doing so, we assess the facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. With its score in this category, we were not stunned to discover that this nursing home was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the measures we looked at. Finally, we assessed the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
