Facility Inspections
This nursing home's overall score was propped up by the fact that it has received favorable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in this area, with a B+. This is a much better grade than the facility's overall score. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A couple relatively minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also was given an impressive short-term care grade. Indeed, we gave them a B+ in that category, which is one of our better. Short-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. We weren't able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

The final area we looked at was long-term care. For this category, we gave this nursing home a C. In the area of long-term care, we assess the quantity of care offered by a facility, rather than more medically-intensive services.
