Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home also received an A+ inspection rating. This score is based on its recent inspection reports.

This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next best category is short-term care. We gave it a B- in this area. This is essentially a middle of the pack score in this area. Our short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we scored proved to be this facility's worst area. Nevertheless, even in its worst category we still gave it an acceptable grade of C for nursing. The nursing grade features many subcategories. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. 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. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In fact, it performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the number of hours of care provided.
