Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While this facility's overall grade was rock bottom, it didn't perform as poorly in the area of nursing. We awarded it a B- for this area. In determining our nursing ratings, we look at both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a relatively low total compared to most nursing homes. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. It performed well when it comes to avoiding 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
This facility also didn't perform too badly in the area of short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which ended up being among its more favorable scores. Short-term care grades are often employed to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To offer high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The more important thing is determining what effect this had on the quality of care. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 95.12195 percent of its patients, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
Facility Inspections
Turning to our final category of inspections, this facility received a grade that's as bad as it gets. We weight this category more heavily than our other categories. When a place has this bad of an inspection rating, you should expect some severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they created a risk to resident safety or health. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.
