Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Even though we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a somewhat respectable nursing score this year. We gave it a B- in that area. When computing a nursing home's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses commit to residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a low total compared to most facilities. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics. While this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did very well in this area. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of moving patients even once per day.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also didn't fare too badly in the area of short-term care. In fact, we gave it a grade of C for that category, which ended up being among its more respectable scores. In our short-term care rating, we try to create a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.

Facility Inspections
Unfortunately, with a grade of D in the inspection category, this facility performed relatively poorly in that area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. We suggest you scrutinize the severity of the deficiencies. This nursing home had 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility also received 28 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored is long-term care, which ended up being this facility's worst category. We awarded this facility a D in that category. For residents in need of a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination data. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
