Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although this nursing home's overall grade was rock bottom, it actually didn't perform as badly in nursing. We awarded it a grade of C for that category. Nursing ratings are based largely on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, while this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did well in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
We were also pleasantly surprised to discover that this nursing home received a somewhat respectable long-term care score in our assessment. We gave it a grade of C in that area. With our long-term care grade, we look at the sheer quantity of services provided by a facility, as well as some quality metrics. Once we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 65.254234 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections
We wanted to point out that this facility received a lowly F for its inspection grade. An F in this area is alarming because it usually points to red flags on the facility's government inspections. For places with poor inspection grades, you should scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our fourth category, this facility really didn't fare very well in this category either. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most meaningful for individuals requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing services. This includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. With a grade in this range for this area, we were not shocked to find this facility was well below average in many staffing figures we looked at. The nursing home offered substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics doomed this nursing home's short-term care grade.
