Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall grade, it did receive a respectable nursing rating of B-. Our nursing rating includes numerous datapoints. The most heavily weighted one is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is significantly below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It scored well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to judge a facility's rehabilitation services. To offer quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Unfortunately, this place was below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 6.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

Facility Inspections
This facility received mediocre inspections in recent years. We awarded them a C in this category. Inspection scores account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. This nursing home had 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were category G through L deficiencies. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our last area, this nursing home didn't fare well here either. With an abysmal grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as as uninspiring as it gets. In a long-term care setting, the primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 97.4359 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
