Nurse Quality
This nursing home received a nursing score which is stronger than its overall grade. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing rating features a variety of factors. The most important factor is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place California in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by having a protocol of turning patients more often.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's better category grades was in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. It actually outperformed most facilities in this area. Nursing homes that do well in this category tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. After we finished looking at the volume of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.81309 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia sadly can be a life or death health condition for nursing home patients so we like it when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
The third category we graded was short-term care, where this facility received a C in this category. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. We found that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. The last measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Facility Inspections
Moving on our final category of inspections, this nursing home received an F here. This grade was detrimental to this facility's overall score. For nursing homes with poor inspection grades, you should focus on any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular nursing home had 7 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility also received 42 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
