Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
Even though we gave this facility a poor overall grade, we gave it a decent score in our short-term care rating, where it received a B-. This was better than some of its other category grades. Our short-term care ratings are critical for individuals in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.
Facility Inspections
We awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our inspections rating. This score is more respectable than the facility's overall grade. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This indicates that it avoided the more serious categories of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received some government fines in recent years.

Long-term Care Quality
The next area we scored is long-term care. This nursing home was given a rock bottom grade of F in that category. For patients in need of a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 93.93939 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than many nursing homes.
