Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of C. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to find that none were in any of the categories labeled J through L. This indicates that inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to place resident health or safety in immediate harm or jeopardy. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Unfortunately, this ended up being one of its better grades. Nursing scores are largely associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality
Our third category we looked at is short-term care, where this nursing home was given an F. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Based on its score in this category, we weren't surprised to find that this facility is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. Honestly, this was what we expected to find. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.7 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we scored was long-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in that area. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 97.695854 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
