The nursing score weighs a host of subcategories. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spent with residents. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

This facility's third highest area is short-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. In our short-term care category, we endeavor to forge a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored is long-term care, which is this nursing home's least impressive area. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. When facilities receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is typically a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the facility is not as well-staffed. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated only 85.91549 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.
