Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Even though this facility's overall score was as bad as it gets, it didn't perform as poorly in nursing. We awarded it a B- for this category. Nursing scores are primarily associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. Although this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this subcategory. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of turning residents more often.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also didn't grade out terribly in the category of short-term care. In fact, we gave it a grade of B- for that area, which ended up being among its better grades. Our short-term care ratings are thought to be most critical for those needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. The last metric we assessed in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only received a grade of D for its long-term care score, which is not a score to write home about. Facilities that don't fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we assessed. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 92.15686 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
Facility Inspections
In our final category of inspections, this facility received an F here. Since this information is compiled by independent government inspectors, we heavily weight negative feedback in this area. You should pay close attention to any deficiencies on a facility's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection grade. We would scrutinize the severity of those deficiencies. This particular facility had 4 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they created a risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
