Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B in nursing. This score is more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Our nursing score includes several components, but the primary one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more impressive category scores came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B. It actually performed better than most facilities in this category. In the area of short-term care, we try to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the category of long-term care, this nursing home was awarded just a D in this category. For patients seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 98.97959 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this facility also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
Facility Inspections
The final category we looked at is inspections. This nursing home did not receive positive government inspection reports in recent years. In fact, we gave it an F in this category. For nursing homes that received this bad of an inspection score, we recommend scrutinizing any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a risk to resident safety or health. Lastly, we also need to point out that this place was assessed large government fines in excess of $50,000. This usually means that government inspectors became fed up after several years of failed government inspections.
