Nurse Quality
On top of receiving a poor overall score, we also gave this nursing home weak scores across the board in our category grades. It received just a D for its nursing grade, which proved to be its best category. Our nursing grade includes a host of factors. The most important variable is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This place provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is slightly below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
Facility Inspections
Among this facility's alarming category grades was an F for its inspection grade. Generally, this means we found some major red flags on its government inspection reports. You should pay special attention to any deficiencies on a nursing home's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection score. We would scrutinize the level of severity of those deficiencies. This facility was assessed a category J or K deficiency, which are among the worst categories of deficiencies. These categories mean that inspectors uncovered a deficiency which puts patient safety or health in imminent danger. Finally, we want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed significant government fines totaling over $100,000. This often suggests that a bad performance spanned more than one year.

Short-term Care Quality
In our next category, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the category of short-term care. Short-term care grades are often employed to score a facility's performance with rehabilitation To have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. With its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to find that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the data we assessed. Frankly, this was what we expected to find. The final measure we considered in this area is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.3 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was quite a bit below the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed was long-term care. This nursing home received a bottom of the barrel grade of F in this category. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. We were a bit alarmed this nursing home vaccinated just 60.135136 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
