Nurse Quality
Grade: B
Although we didn't give this nursing home a good overall score, we actually gave it a strong grade in nursing, where it earned a B. This is better than most nursing homes in this area. Our nursing grade assesses the facility's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the number of hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: B
Another one of this facility's better category scores came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. Our short-term care ratings are arguably more critical for those needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates additional highly-skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types 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 information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
Grade: F
This facility wound up receiving a a terrible score in our long-term care category. It received a lowly F in this area. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in long-term care it is a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the place is not as well-staffed. Once we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 91.47287 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
Facility Inspections
Grade: F
In the final category of inspections, this facility fared very poorly. Sadly, it received an F in our inspection category. This is the most heavily weighted category in our overall grading system. For places with bad inspection ratings, you should scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. We weren't able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. Lastly, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years totaling over $100,000. This typically means that a bad performance spanned multiple years.
