Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is one of our better scores. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially focus on the severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to find that none were in categories G through L. This tells you that this facility dodged the more significant categories of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
Short-term Care Quality
Included in this facility's several terrible scores was its F in the category of short-term care. In forming our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to formulate a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. With a grade of this caliber for this category, we weren't shocked to learn that this place was below average in multiple staffing metrics we assess. It offered significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.5 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing rating is based on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This place averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the last category, this facility really did not fare very well in this category either. Due to a rock bottom grade of F in long-term care, this is about as bad as it gets. For patients seeking a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 97.413795 percent of its patients, which is an above average total. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
