Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection score. Its inspection score was far better than its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we had a generally positive view of this nursing home's recent inspections.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was awarded its second best category grade in the category of long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in this category, which is a decent score. Long-term care grades focus on a facility's assistance with daily living rather than the skilled therapy and healthcare services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated 80 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be several points below average. Fortunately, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we gave this nursing home an F. This is certainly not one of this facility's better areas. We assessed the licensure of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses were with residents, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's worst area was short-term care, which is the final area we analyzed. It received an F in this category. Even with multiple decent scores in other categories, this score is still of a concern so we wanted to draw your attention to it. In computing our short-term care scores, we size up a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This rating is generally a useful measure of a facility's rehabilitation services. With a grade of this caliber for this category, we were not shocked to find that this nursing home was below average in two of the key staffing figures we looked at. The nursing home offered far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.1 percent of its residents returning home.
