Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We could not find anything positive to say about this place. It received a grade of just D in our short-term care rating. Tragically, this ended up being its best grade. In determining our short-term care ratings, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Given its poor grade in this category, we were not stunned to find that this facility provided significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The last metric we looked at in this category is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below average.
Long-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only earned a D for its long-term care grade, which was actually one of its more favorable category grades. If you are looking for services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.

Facility Inspections
In our final category of inspections, this nursing home received a grade that's as bad as it gets. We weight this category more heavily than our other categories. With nursing homes that received this poor of an inspection score, we would scrutinize the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they caused a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, we need to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed significant government fines recently of over $100,000. This typically indicates that a nursing home's bad track record spanned more than one year.
