Facility Inspections
While we were not very complementary of this facility's overall grade, it received a very impressive inspection report this year. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in that category with a grade of A. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid places with a bunch of severe deficiencies flagged. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Not surprisingly, we discovered that this facility offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical facility. The last statistic we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 5.8 percent of its patients returning home. This was well below the national average.

This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes.
