Long-term Care Quality
In addition to receiving a poor overall score, we also gave this facility poor grades across the board in the various categories. In fact, it only received a D for its long-term care grade, which was its best category. For prospective patients seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.93617 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's poor nursing grade where it received an F. Nursing ratings are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. 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 measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Facility Inspections
Among this facility's alarming category grades was an F for its inspection grade. More often than not, this means we found some red flags on the facility's inspection reports. When a place has this poor of an inspection grade, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to the well being of residents. This nursing home had 4 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a risk to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we graded was short-term care. It received a lowly F for this area, which is a very poor grade. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to craft a meaningful measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. With a grade of this caliber for this category, we were not surprised to learn that this place was below average in multiple staffing areas we looked at. The facility provided far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents that were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
