Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this facility overall, we awarded it an A- for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the nursing home's overall score. Our inspection scores account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid facilities with a bunch of deficiencies flagged. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home only earned a grade of D for its short-term care score, which turns out to be one of its more respectable category grades. Our short-term care grade is often used to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have better levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. With a grade of this caliber in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this nursing home was below average in two of the key staffing metrics we assess. It supplied significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar statistics was damning for this facility's short-term care score.

Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the area of long-term care. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in this category it typically means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 89.54955 percent of its patients. This is multiple points below what we were hoping for. Surprisingly, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
Nurse Quality
The final category we graded is nursing. This nursing home was given a very poor grade of F in this area. When determining a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the amount of time nurses commit to residents and the skill levels of the nurses. This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is well below average. On top of rating below average in nursing hours per resident, this facility also had poor scores in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in both of these data points. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that many falls and bed sores are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. These statistics pulled down this nursing home's nursing rating quite a bit.
