Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Neither this facility's overall grade nor its category scores gave us anything to write home about. This place's best category is nursing, but even there it received just a D. The nursing score considers many factors. The most heavily weighted one is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This place provided 0.2 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
We also wanted to note this facility's low-end long-term care grade where it received an F. Long-term care scores in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. Unfortunately, this facility vaccinated only 57.420925 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.

Facility Inspections
Among this nursing home's worst category grades was a lowly F for its inspection score. Typically, this indicates we found some red flags on the nursing home's inspection reports. For facilities with poor inspection scores, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This nursing home had one category G through L deficiency, which rank among the more serious deficiencies. These categories indicate that the deficiencies identified by CMS had the potential to pose actual harm to residents. On top of having severe deficiencies, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was short-term care. This nursing home was given a very poor grade of F in this category. Our short-term care grades are likely most meaningful for patients needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes not only nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. As you might expect, we found that this facility offers substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that returned home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
