Facility Inspections
Although we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our more favorable grades in that area with a grade of B. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
We gave this facility just a D for our short-term care score and that actually wound up as its next best score. Our short-term care scores are considered to be more critical for those requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this nursing home offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.

Long-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility's next highest score was long-term care. However, with a D in this area, it still fared somewhat badly. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We discovered that this nursing home administered the vaccine to only 53.65854 percent of its residents, which is several points lower than we expected. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
Nurse Quality
The last area we rated was nursing, where this nursing home received a very poor score in this category as well. We gave it an abysmal F for this category, which is definitely a major concern. In computing our nursing ratings, we analyze both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This particular place averaged a meager 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This statistic is significantly below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these data points to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
