Facility Inspections
Although we did not have many favorable things to say about this nursing home's overall score, it earned a somewhat respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent score in this category with a score of B-. We would argue that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 9 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of B-. Our nursing grade is largely based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses aids to assist its patients.

The last area we graded is short-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a D in this area. Our short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. Considering its score in this category, we were not surprised to learn that this facility is well below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the metrics we assessed.
