Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we were not complementary of this facility's overall grade, it actually earned an impressive nursing rating this year. We gave it a B+ in this category. Our nursing grade assesses several factors, many of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Facility Inspections
We were also pleasantly surprised to award this nursing home a relatively favorable government inspection score as well. We gave it a respectable grade of B- in this category, which was much better than its overall score. Inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this facility's third best score is short-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this area, it still performed relatively badly. In our short-term care rating, we strive to craft a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. With a score in this range in this category, we weren't stunned to find this nursing home was well below average in multiple staffing areas we focus on. The facility offered far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most facilities. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar statistics doomed this nursing home's short-term care score.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored was long-term care, was this nursing home's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a D in this category. Long-term care grades in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to a relatively low 82.27848 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
