Short-term Care Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our short-term care rating. Our short-term care grades are believed to be most meaningful for patients requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional skilled nursing. This means not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The tricky part is determining what bearing this had on quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also didn't rate too badly in the category of long-term care. In fact, we awarded it a C in that area, which happens to be another one of its more favorable scores. In the category of long-term care, we analyze the amount of care provided by a nursing home, rather than more medically-intensive services. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 93.00699 percent of its residents, which is somewhat below what we were hoping for. Nevertheless, this facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

This particular facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a risk to patient health or safety.
