Facility Inspections
Although this place's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good grade in the category of inspections. We gave it a B+ for that area, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid nursing homes with too many severe deficiencies flagged. While this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L.

A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

We gave this nursing home a grade of just D for our short-term care score. This is not one of our better scores. In the area of short-term care, we seek to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. As you might expect, we learned that this place offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. The last item we considered in this category is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our fourth area, this nursing home did not perform well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated only 52.892563 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
