Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Even though we gave this nursing home an abysmal overall score, we awarded it a C for our nursing rating. The nursing grade features a variety of factors. The most important one is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a relatively low total compared with most nursing homes. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.
Facility Inspections
Interestingly, this nursing home's awful overall grade can't really be attributed to its government inspection reports. We awarded it a grade of C for inspections. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were in categories G through L. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to present an imminent danger to patient health or safety. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home's next best category was long-term care. Nevertheless, with a grade of D in this category, it still performed somewhat badly. When facilities receive this type of grade in long-term care it is typically a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 49.24138 percent of its residents. This is significantly less than the national average. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the final area, this nursing home did not fare well here either. With a rock bottom grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. Our short-term care ratings are important for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. With its grade in this area, we were not surprised to discover that this place was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the data we assessed. Frankly, this was what we expected here. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
