Facility Inspections
While we didn't give this nursing home a good overall grade, we actually gave it a strong grade in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of B+. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies an immediate risk to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second most favorable area is its short-term care score, where it received a C. Our short-term care ratings are meaningful for patients requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The key is determining what bearing this had on the quality of care. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its nursing grade, which was actually one of its better category grades. Our nursing score features many datapoints. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spent with residents. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed is long-term care. This facility was given a poor grade of F in that area. For residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. One of the factors we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 95.260666 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
