Quick Details
Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. In computing our nursing ratings, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of the nurses. Based on the CMS data, this nursing home offers 3.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed admirably in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Many falls can be prevented if a facility offers enough nurses aids to assist its residents.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also didn't grade out terribly in the category of short-term care. In fact, we gave it a grade of C for that area, which ended up being among its more favorable scores. In crafting our short-term care scores, we look at 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 purpose is to formulate a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. We found that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that returned home from this facility. This place performed respectably in this metric with 45 percent of its patients returning home.

Facility Inspections
This place received a lowly F for its inspection score. This is an important category. Grades in this range generally mean we found red flags on the nursing home's government inspections. With places that received this poor of an inspection grade, we would scrutinize any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This facility had 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they caused a threat to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we analyzed is long-term care, where this nursing home was given a poor grade in this category also. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F for this area, which is definitely very concerning. Long-term care grades in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated 71.23656 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be quite a bit below what we were hoping for. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. We found that this nursing home had 2.08 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, this figure is also a cause for concern.
