We weren't high on this nursing home's overall scores or its category grades. We gave it a grade of just just D for our nursing rating and that proved to be its best score. Nursing ratings are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

The only favorable thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they created a threat to patient health or safety.

Short-term Care Quality
We awarded this nursing home just a D for our short-term care score. This is not an impressive grade. Short-term care grades are often used to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation In order to have high-end rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This definitely wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the last area, this facility did not perform very well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category may not provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 88.554214 percent of its residents. This is multiple points lower than average. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.
