Facility Inspections
Although this place's overall grade was not a highlight, it did receive a very good score in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for that category, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with a list of deficiencies flagged. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home received its next best category score in the area of long-term care. We gave this nursing home a B- in this category, which is a decent grade.

Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 99.18367 percent of its residents. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. When calculating a facility's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This particular place offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This statistic is quite a bit below the national average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This facility fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we rated was short-term care. This facility was given an abysmal grade of F in that category. In calculating these short-term care ratings, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to create a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. With a score in this range in this category, we weren't surprised to find this nursing home was well below average in the two key staffing metrics we assess. The facility supplied significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The last item we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.5 percent of its patients returning home.
