In our short-term care category, we attempt to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Given its score in this area, we were not stunned to learn that this facility was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the data we looked at. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.

Among this facility's alarming category grades was an F for its inspection grade. More often than not, this means we found some red flags on the facility's inspection reports. 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 pay close attention to the severity of the deficiencies. This particular facility had 9 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they caused a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
