Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
Although we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections rating. This grade is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. This proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we gave this facility an D. Our nursing rating is largely based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility offered a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's second lowest score is long-term care, where it earned a grade of just D in that area. This is a well below average grade. When facilities receive this type of grade in this category it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the place is not as well-staffed. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated just 87.15847 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive area was short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. For this area, we gave this facility a D. Short-term care scores are vital for residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With its weak rating in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this facility provides substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
