Facility Inspections
Although we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Inspection grades are tied to several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Most importantly, you should avoid facilities with severe deficiencies associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this facility's better category scores came in the category of long-term care. This ended up being its second most favorable category. In that category, we gave this facility a B-. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility administered the vaccine to only 84.46328 percent of its residents. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we looked at was short-term care. We gave it an abysmal F for this area, which is a rock bottom score. In computing our short-term care grades, we look at the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This score is considered to be a reliable measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. Not surprisingly, we found that this place offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical facility. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
