Facility Inspections
While we gave this place a poor overall grade, we gave it a grade of B for our inspections rating. This was due to the facility receiving a decent government inspection report this year. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category was nursing, but even there it received a grade of just D. This is still a well below average grade. Our nursing score is primarily tied to a facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Nursing homes that don't fare well in this category often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in a few of the areas of routine medical care we assessed. Once we concluded our assessment of the volume of nursing care, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. We were a bit alarmed this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 51.67095 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the final category, we gave this nursing home a grade of D for the area of short-term care. This is the nursing home's weakest category rating. In our short-term care assessment, we try to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Based on its score in this area, we were not stunned to find that this facility is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the figures we looked at. Honestly, this was about what we expected here. The final item we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
