Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a C for that category, which is one of our better scores. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This place was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This means this facility dodged the more significant classes of deficiencies. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.
Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its short-term care score. In computing our short-term care scores, we size up a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. This rating is typically a reliable assessment of a nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. When calculating our nursing grades, we factor in both staffing levels and the training levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our last area, this nursing home did not perform very well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. For prospective residents in need of a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After we finished looking at the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinates 99.54338 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
