Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home is also above average in the category of long-term care, where it was awarded a grade of B+. It outperformed most nursing homes in this area. Nursing homes that do well in this category tend to provide residents with better supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 97.37609 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a life or death ailment for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong short-term care score. In fact, we gave it an above average grade of B in this category. Short-term care scores are important for residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing. This includes a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This facility's least impressive category is nursing, which is the last category we assessed. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this area. Despite a few favorable grades in other categories, this score is nevertheless somewhat alarming so we felt obligated to make sure you are aware. Our nursing rating analyzes several data points, however, the paramount one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. Unfortunately, this facility also didn't perform as well as we hoped in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed in this category.
