Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this facility overall, we awarded it an A for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively minor. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home's next most respectable score is long-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this area, it still fared somewhat badly. Facilities that don't fare well in long-term care typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this facility vaccinated only 88.339226 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

This nursing home wound up receiving a bottom of the barrel score in our short-term care area. It was given a lowly F in this area. In determining our short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to devise a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. With its score in this category, we were not stunned to discover that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 5.5 percent of its residents returning home.
