Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we graded this nursing home incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing score this year. We gave it a B- in that area. In calculating a facility's nursing score, we look at the amount of time nurses are seeing patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This place provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses aids to assist its patients.
Long-term Care Quality
Incredibly, we gave this facility a grade of C for its long-term care score, which isn't a bad grade. In the area of long-term care, we analyze the amount of services offered by a facility, rather than more medically-intensive services. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 99.19786 percent of its patients. This facility also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections
Sadly, this facility received a grade of just D in our inspection category. This is well below average grade. One of the more critical factors in evaluating inspection reports is deficiencies. We suggest you pay close attention to the level of severity of the deficiencies. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they caused a risk to patient health or safety. 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
Turning to our last category, we awarded this facility a grade of D for the area of short-term care. This was the facility's worst category score. Our short-term care grades are thought to be more meaningful for folks in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Considering its score in this area, we weren't surprised to learn that this nursing home is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the data we looked at. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 2.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
