Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a C for that category, which is one of our better scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some are relatively insignificant. This place had 10 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were category G through L deficiencies. This means it avoided the more serious classes of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the area of long-term care, this facility was awarded a grade of just D in that area. Sadly, this ended up being one of its better grades. Facilities that do not fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 44.093178 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Nurse Quality
We were stunned to find that this facility also excelled in nursing. We awarded it an D for that category, which is one of our highest scores. When determining a nursing home's nursing grade, we consider the number of hours nurses are seeing residents and the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive area was short-term care, which is the last area we assessed. In this category, we awarded this facility a grade of D. With our short-term care score, we try to forge a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Based on its grade in this category, we were not stunned to discover that this facility is well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The final measure we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics was damning for this facility's short-term care grade.
