Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home actually didn't perform quite as poorly in long-term care. In fact, we gave it a B- for that category. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care scores. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.72603 percent of its patients, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home really excelled in nursing, where it earned an C. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Our nursing score is largely based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day, which is a very low figure. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this nursing home only earned a D for its short-term care score, which is well below average in this category. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Considering its poor grade in this area, we weren't surprised to find this facility provided far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care score.
Facility Inspections
Moving on our last category of inspections, this nursing home received an F here. Since this data is collected by independent government inspectors, we heavily weight poor results in this category. When a facility has this poor of an inspection score, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. This particular facility was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they posed a threat to resident health or safety. Lastly, we also would like to point out that this nursing home was assessed large government fines recently amounting to more than $100,000. This typically signifies that a nursing home's poor performance has been an issue for multiple years.
