Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. In computing a facility's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses are with residents and the level of skill of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, our nursing scores also factor in quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses aids to assist its residents.
Facility Inspections
Interestingly, this facility's terrible overall grade can't really be attributed to its inspection reports. We awarded it a grade of C for inspections. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in category J, K or L. This indicates that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to place patient health or safety in imminent harm or jeopardy. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the area of short-term care, this nursing home was awarded just a D in that area. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Given its poor score in this area, we weren't shocked to learn that this facility provided far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this facility's short-term care score.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our final area, this nursing home didn't fare well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is really as terrible as it gets. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 94.92481 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
