Facility Inspections
This place didn't receive any favorable scores. Its most concerning score may be its inspection score, where it received an F. With nursing homes that received this bad of an inspection rating, we recommend scrutinizing the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was assessed large government fines recently amounting to more than $100,000. This usually suggests that a nursing home's poor performance has been an issue for multiple years.
Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's unfortunate short-term care score where it received an F. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. With a grade this poor for this category, we were not stunned to find that this place was well below average in the two key staffing metrics we looked at. In fact, it supplied far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The last datapoint we assessed in this category is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we graded is long-term care. This nursing home received a poor grade of F in this area. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 98.5119 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
