Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an excellent inspection score. Its inspection score was far better than its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's long-term care rating turns out to be one of its best scores. The facility was awarded a C in this area. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. One of the statistics we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to a relatively low 78.68852 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Another strength of this facility is its favorable grade in nursing. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. Nursing grades are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. With just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this place's nurse staffing levels were significantly below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed was short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's worst category. It received an F for this category, which is clearly very disappointing. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. With a score in this range in this area, we were not stunned to find this facility was below average in two of the key staffing metrics we assess. The nursing home supplied far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most facilities. The last metric we considered in this area is the number of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.8 percent of its residents returning home.
