Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that area, which is one of our best scores. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to be an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's short-term care score appears to be one of its higher grades. The facility received a grade of C in this area. Short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home ended up receiving a a very poor grade in our long-term care area. It received a lowly F in this category. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 76.208176 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this facility was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to our next area, this nursing home really didn't perform well in this category either. With a rock bottom grade of F in nursing, this is about as bad as it gets. The nursing rating analyzes quite a few components, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This facility also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based measures to pair with its low nursing hours. We looked at the percent of residents suffering pressure ulcers and we were quite disappointed. This place was at roughly 1.5 times the national average in this measure.
