Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we gave it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores are based on several items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility ended up receiving a rock-bottom score in our long-term care area. It received a lowly F in this category. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. One of the datapoints we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Fortunately, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 97.95919 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.

In our next category, we gave this nursing home an F in the area of short-term care. Our short-term care scores are crucial for individuals looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its grade in this area, we weren't surprised to discover that this place was well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the data we assessed. The last metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
Nurse Quality
The last category we rated was nursing. This facility received an abysmal grade of F in that area. The nursing rating is based on numerous data points. The most important variable is the quantity of hours nurses spent with residents. This place averaged a meager 0.2 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
