Facility Inspections
Although we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections category. This score is far more impressive than the nursing home's overall grade. Inspection ratings are tied to several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. Most importantly, you should avoid facilities with severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we were able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. We wish we had more data for this facility. Without complete information regarding deficiencies, it ended up being difficult to fully assess this facility in terms of this category.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's short-term care grade is one of its higher scores. The nursing home received a grade of C in this area. Our short-term care ratings are probably most critical for people in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires more skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The more important thing is determining what effect this had on the quality of care. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing rating is based on several factors, most of which are tied to quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a low total compared to most facilities. Lastly, while this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we scored was long-term care, which turned out to be a weak link for this facility. We gave this facility a grade of D in long-term care. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means the nursing home did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 93.1677 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is slightly lower than we expected but still a respectable percentage. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
