Facility Inspections
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility really outperformed its overall grade in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that area with an A+. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to be an imminent risk to resident safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.

Facilities that do well in this category typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients.

Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home's next highest category was short-term care. However, with a D in this category, it still fared somewhat badly. Our short-term care grade is often used to measure a nursing home's rehabilitation services In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, we discovered that this place provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar statistics sunk this facility's short-term care grade.
Nurse Quality
The final area we analyzed is nursing, turned out to be this facility's worst category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in that area. This really was one of the few weak links of an otherwise impressive profile. Nursing ratings are tied to quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this place also didn't perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home.
