Facility Inspections
While we gave this facility a terrible overall score, we awarded it a B for our inspections rating. This is the result of the nursing home receiving a quality inspection report this year. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid facilities with a list of deficiencies flagged. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next highest score is long-term care, but it nevertheless received a grade of just D in that area. This turns out to be a well below average grade. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care may not provide the type of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities offer. One of the statistics we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. We were a bit worried that this facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to a relatively low 83.68421 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This statistic is significantly below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This place performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our next category, this nursing home really did not perform very well in this category either. With an abysmal grade of F in short-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. With our short-term care category, we seek to forge a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Considering its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this facility was well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Frankly, this was about what we expected here. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
