Facility Inspections
Although we did not rate this facility favorably overall, we want to point out its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Inspection ratings account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with a list of severe deficiencies flagged. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's short-term care grade appears to be one of its respectable scores. The facility was awarded a C in this category. Short-term care grades are often used to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide higher levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The tricky part is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the nursing home. It performed much better in this metric with 61.4 percent of its patients returning home.

Long-term Care Quality
The next area we looked at was long-term care, in which this nursing home was given an F. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is an above average figure. Surprisingly, this facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.77 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
The final area we analyzed was nursing. This facility received an abysmal grade of F in this category. The nursing score weighs many factors, but the primary consideration is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided a meager 2.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also looked at a few quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place was above average in two of the data points we focus on, with solid marks for avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. These data points are typically good indicators of the quality of nursing care offered.
