When calculating our nursing scores, we factor in both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is far below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the last category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D for short-term care. This is the nursing home's least impressive category rating. Unfortunately, this score hurt the facility's overall profile to a certain degree. In calculating our short-term care scores, we assess the facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other licensed professionals. This grade is often a fair measure of a facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. It looks like this place was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the measures we considered. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most facilities, about half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
