Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but it really excelled in the area of nursing care, with an impressive grade of A- in this category. We looked at the levels of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the quantity of hours those nurses worked with residents, in calculating our grade in this category. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of moving residents at least once a day.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also received a positive grade in our short-term care category. We awarded this nursing home a better than average grade of B+ in that category. Short-term care grades are meaningful for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second worse score was long-term care, where it received just a D in that area. This is a relatively poor score. Facilities that do not fare well in this category often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in some of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 91.26214 percent of its patients, which is slightly below what we were hoping for. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
Facility Inspections
Turning the last category of inspections, this facility did not fare well. Sadly, it received an F in this category. This pulled this nursing home's overall grade down as we heavily weight this category. You should pay special attention to any deficiencies on a nursing home's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection grade. We recommend you scrutinize the severity of those deficiencies. This facility had 3 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility also received 16 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
