Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we did not rate this facility well overall, we want to point out its decent grade of B- in the category of nursing. Our nursing grade is largely associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This facility averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily, which is well below average. Finally, while this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in some of our quality-based measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did very well in this metric.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's short-term care rating appears to be one of its more favorable grades. The nursing home was awarded a grade of B- in this category. In determining our short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to formulate a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below average.

Long-term Care Quality
The third category we analyzed was long-term care, where this nursing home received a B- in this area. Our long-term care scores are more meaningful for folks needing more conventional services associated with activities of daily living. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.00443 percent of its residents, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. This place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Facility Inspections
Lastly, this facility received a grade of C. Inspection grades are based on a nursing home's government inspections. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of the deficiencies. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to find that none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This indicates the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to patient safety or health. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
