Facility Inspections
While we did not rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to point out its relatively solid inspections in recent years. We gave it a B+ in this category, which is much better than its overall grade. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid facilities that had too many deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a solid score in the category of short-term care, with a B-. Short-term care ratings are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The key is determining what effect this had on the quality of care. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Many of the datapoints are tied to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, which is not an impressive total. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually a reliable indicator that a place has quality controls in place.

This nursing home's least impressive area is long-term care, which is the last category we scored. In this area, we awarded this facility a D. For patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are an important measure. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is a very solid datapoint. To our surprise, this place also keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
