Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. We believe that one of the most important factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially focus on the severity of the deficiencies. This place was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to resident health or safety. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home ended up receiving a rock-bottom score in our long-term care category. It was given an F in this area. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in this category may not provide the type of consistent around the clock care that some other nursing homes offer. One of the statistics we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to a relatively low 66.66667 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the area of short-term care. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The last statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.5 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next category we rated was nursing, in which this facility received a very poor grade in this category also. Sadly, it received an abysmal F for this area, which is obviously a major concern. Our nursing score consists of several factors, but the primary one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This place averaged only 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. This place also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based metrics to go along with its low nursing hour totals. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and we were disappointed. This facility was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in this statistic.
