Long-term Care Quality
We really could not find anything positive to say about this facility. It received a D in long-term care. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in long-term care likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes offer. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. As it turns out, this facility vaccinated a relatively low 76.92307 percent of its residents, which is somewhat alarming. 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 less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best feature in this category.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing grade. In fact, nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of D. Our nursing score assesses a handful of factors, but the main consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections
Unfortunately, this nursing home received an F for its inspection rating. When a nursing home has this bad of an inspection grade, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. This particular nursing home had 5 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, we also need to point out that this place was assessed large government fines recently totaling over $100,000. This often indicates that a facility's poor performance spanned more than one year.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we scored was short-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is a rock bottom score. In the area of short-term care, we seek to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
