Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these end up being relatively minor. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home only earned a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which was actually one of its better category scores. Our short-term care scores are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. With a grade in this range in this category, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in many staffing figures we looked at. In fact, it offered far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

This nursing home vaccinated 87.39496 percent of its residents. This is pretty significantly less than the national average.
