Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B for our inspections category. This score is much better than the facility's overall score. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid places with a bunch of deficiencies flagged. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
The second best area we awarded this facility in any category came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-. For patients looking for a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. After considering the amount of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 97.53086 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. The nursing rating analyzes many datapoints, however, the primary consideration is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This place offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's weakest area was short-term care, which is the last category we assessed. In this area, we gave this nursing home a grade of just D. Our short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Based on its poor grade in this area, we weren't stunned to discover that this nursing home offered significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The final metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below the national average.
