Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection grades account for several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid places with a bunch of severe deficiencies flagged. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
We gave this nursing home a grade of just D for our long-term care rating and that actually wound up as its next highest category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We were a bit worried that this nursing home gave the vaccine to a relatively low 73.548386 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this facility's third highest category was short-term care. As it turns out, with a D in this category, it still performed relatively poorly. Our short-term care grades are vital for patients requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a broad scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With its weak rating in this category, we weren't shocked to discover this nursing home provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
The final category we analyzed was nursing. This facility received a poor grade of F in this category. Nursing scores are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility offered only 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 fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
