Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a C for that category, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection grades are tied to pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to patient safety. This place had 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were in category J, K or L. This indicates inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to place patient health or safety in immediate harm or jeopardy. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
Long-term Care Quality
We gave this facility just a D for our long-term care grade and that actually ended up being its next most favorable score. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care grades. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinated 94.495415 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with levels of nurse staffing. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the final category, this nursing home really did not perform well in this category either. With a rock bottom grade of F in short-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. In the category of short-term care, we seek to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. With a grade in this range in this category, we weren't shocked to discover this place was below average in two of the key staffing areas we focus on. It offered far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
