Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
While we did not have many favorable things to say about this place's overall grade, it did receive a respectable government inspection report this year. It received a decent score in that category with a B-. We would argue that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially focus on the severity of those deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Another area of concern is that CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's long-term care rating is one of its respectable grades. The facility was given a grade of B- in this category. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's 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 considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. As it turns out, this facility administered the vaccine to only 86.52482 percent of its patients, which is somewhat concerning. On a more positive note, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of C. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures. Although this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this statistic. This can be a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as having a protocol of turning patients even once per day.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we scored is short-term care, which turned out to be this facility's worst category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this area. In the category of short-term care, we seek to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Not surprisingly, we learned that this place provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients that returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
