Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it an A for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the nursing home's overall grade. Our inspection scores are tied to several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. You should especially avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies associated with endangerment of patients. While this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This facilities second best category was long-term care. We gave it a B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the road score in this area. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinated 94.85294 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's poor nursing grade where it received an F. Nursing scores are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This particular place averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This figure is quite a bit below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we rated is short-term care, in which this facility received a rock bottom score in this category as well. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F in this category, which is definitely a major disappointment. Our short-term care scores are critical for individuals looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a vast range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this facility offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average nursing home. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
