Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we gave it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our inspection grades are tied to several items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. This place was assessed 8 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
We gave this facility a grade of just D for our long-term care grade and that actually turned out to be its second highest score. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in long-term care may not provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities provide. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. Unfortunately, this nursing home vaccinated only 59.999996 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

This means a wide range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
Nurse Quality
Moving on to the fourth area, this nursing home really did not perform very well in this category either. Due to a poor grade of F in nursing, this is really as bad as it gets. Our nursing grade weighs quite a few factors, however, the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
