Facility Inspections
This facility earned an inspection grade which is better than its overall score. Inspection ratings are associated with the nursing home's recent inspections. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this category. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next most favorable area came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. Short-term care grades are commonly employed to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To have quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. The nursing score is based on several subcategories. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, our nursing ratings also consider quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses to assist its patients.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed is long-term care, which was this nursing home's weakest category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in this area. For residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 99.19908 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
