Nurse Quality
While this nursing home's overall grade wasn't a highlight, it received a somewhat respectable score in nursing. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category. When computing our nursing scores, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provides only 0 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a somewhat discouraging figure which is well below the national average. Finally, our nursing ratings also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

This facility's next best area is short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. In the category of short-term care, we strive to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. The last statistic we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 4.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
