Facility Inspections
While this place's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it performed well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for that area, which is one of our better scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility only received a grade of D for its short-term care score, which is actually one of its better category grades. Our short-term care ratings are probably most critical for individuals needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Considering its poor grade in this category, we weren't surprised to discover this nursing home offered significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing rating assesses the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This facility averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these metrics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we graded was long-term care. This facility received a poor grade of F in this area. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it generally means the facility did not perform well in our quality measures relating to patient care. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 91.32231 percent of its residents, which is somewhat lower than we anticipated. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
