Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
This facility actually earned a respectable grade in our short-term care rating. We awarded it a grade of B- for that category. Our short-term care scores are thought to be most important for folks needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically mandates more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The tricky part is determining what bearing this had on the quality of care. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 5.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Facility Inspections
We awarded this facility a C for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This facility was assessed 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This means that this facility dodged the more serious classes of deficiencies. Finally, we do need to note that this place has received some government fines recently. Fortunately these were not on the high end as government fines go. Nevertheless, this is still not what we want to find.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. Our nursing score assesses quite a few components, many of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we graded is long-term care, which is this facility's least impressive area. We awarded this nursing home a D in this area. For patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. After we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 95.19231 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
