Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We really weren't high on this nursing home's overall grade or its category scores. We gave it a lowly D for our short-term care grade and that actually turned out to be its highest score. Our short-term care ratings are meaningful for patients seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Given its abysmal grade in this area, we were not stunned to discover this nursing home offered significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This was not a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 4.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most facilities, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the category of long-term care, this nursing home was given a grade of just D in that area. As it turns out, this ended up being its second best grade. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 98.039215 percent of its residents, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.

Nurse Quality
We gave this facility a grade of just D for our nursing rating. In calculating our nursing scores, we factor in both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provided only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This facility performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Facility Inspections
In the final category of inspections, this facility had an abysmal showing. It received an F in our inspection category. This happens to be our most heavily weighted category in our grading system. For places with bad inspection scores, you should really focus on any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they posed a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, we need to point out that this place was assessed significant government fines recently of over $100,000. This often means that a facility's bad performance has been an issue for several years.
