Facility Inspections
Although we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a grade of B+ for our inspections category. This score is far better than the nursing home's overall score. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home was awarded its next most favorable category grade in the category of short-term care. We gave this nursing home a B- in this category, which is a reasonably acceptable score. Short-term care ratings are important for prospective residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes a broad spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Our long-term care grade is commonly used to measure a facility's performance as a traditional nursing home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services offered by a skilled nursing facility. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 77.448746 percent of its residents. This is significantly below what we expected. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

The next area we looked at is nursing. This facility was given a poor grade of F in that category. Nursing ratings are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. 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.
