Facility Inspections
While this place's overall score was terrible, it actually fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for that area, which is one of our better scores. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. It is generally in your best interest to avoid facilities that have too many severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the category of long-term care, this facility was awarded a grade of just D in this area. Unfortunately, this ended up being one of its best areas. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care may not provide the type of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities offer. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 78.9916 percent of its residents. This is several points lower than what we expected. Surprisingly, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing grade is largely associated with the nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our fourth area, this nursing home didn't fare well in this category either. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. With its grade in this category, we were not stunned to find that this place is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we looked at. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 4.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
