Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall score, we awarded it a B- for our nursing category. In computing our nursing scores, we analyze both nursing hours and the skill levels of those nurses. This particular facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This figure is significantly below the national average. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often an indicator that a place has quality controls in place.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second most respectable score is short-term care, but it still earned a grade of just D in that area. This is still a well below average grade. Short-term care grades are often used to measure a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to have good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. With a score this poor for this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assess. In fact, it supplied substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 3.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

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. For places with poor inspection scores, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This nursing home had a category G through L deficiency, which rank among the more severe categories of deficiencies. This generally indicates that the deficiencies uncovered by inspectors had potential to pose actual harm to residents. Lastly, we want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received large government fines amounting to more than $100,000. This typically indicates that a facility's poor performance spanned multiple years.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored is long-term care, in which this nursing home received a bottom of the barrel score here as well. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F in this area, which is definitely a major concern. For residents seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 95.57196 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
