Facility Inspections
This nursing home's scores are horrible across the board. In particular, we wanted to point out its inspection grade where it received an F. This isn't a good sign for its government inspection reports. You should pay close attention to any deficiencies on a nursing home's inspection reports when it receives this poor of an inspection score. We would pay close attention to the level of severity of the deficiencies. This particular facility was assessed 9 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they caused a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its long-term care score. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means the nursing home didn't perform well in our measures relating to resident care. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility administered the vaccine to a relatively low 55.376343 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this facility was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

Nurse Quality
This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. The nursing score analyzes many components, however, the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our next category, this facility really did not fare well here either. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Based on its score in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the figures we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected here. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
