Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. This place was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also didn't perform poorly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a C in that area, which ended up being among its better scores. With our short-term care category, we strive to forge a fair measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the nursing home's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final metric we considered in this area is the number of residents that eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality
Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our nursing rating, which isn't a bad grade. There are a number of subcategories within this category. Many of the datapoints relate to levels of nurse staffing. This place averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which is a very low figure. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our next category, this facility really did not fare very well in this category either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as as uninspiring as it gets. Facilities that do not fare well in long-term care often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in a few of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 91.6996 percent of its patients, which is a bit below what we were hoping for. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
