Facility Inspections
Although we graded this nursing home incredibly poorly overall, it earned a relatively impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our more favorable grades in that category with a B. Our inspection ratings account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid facilities with a list of deficiencies flagged. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Despite this deficiency, this place still had a relatively positive report.
Short-term Care Quality
We were also stunned to discover that this nursing home received a solid short-term care grade in our assessment. We gave it a C in this area. Short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its level of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality
We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. In calculating our nursing scores, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This facility fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth category, this nursing home really did not fare very well in this area either. With a very poor grade of F in long-term care, this is really as terrible as it gets. Nursing homes that do not score well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home gave the vaccine to a relatively low 35.638298 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this facility was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
