Nurse Quality
While we didn't rate this nursing home favorably overall, we actually gave it an excellent grade in nursing, where it earned an A-. Few places fared better in this area. Our nursing score weighs numerous subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second most favorable category was short-term care. We gave it a C in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average grade in this area. With our short-term care assessment, we seek to create a valuable barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze a facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
The next category we graded is long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. In computing our long-term care ratings, we analyze the assistance with daily living offered to the nursing home's residents. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 75.207985 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
This facility did not receive a favorable inspection rating. We gave it just a just D in this category. Inspection grades relate to a nursing home's government inspections. We weight poor inspection scores heavily in our assessment. Since government inspections are completed by independent inspectors, we consider this information to be reliable. Inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. You should be most cautious when considering a facility that has severe deficiencies on a recent inspection report. This facility had a deficiency by government inspectors. We were relieved to find that it wasn't in a category that suggests that it created a risk to patient health or safety. Lastly, we need to point out that this nursing home was assessed large government fines recently exceeding $50,000. This generally signifies that CMS inspectors grew tired after multiple years of bad inspections.
