Facility Inspections
While this place's overall score was as bad as it gets, it actually performed pretty 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 determining these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility only received a D for its long-term care score, which ended up being one of its higher category grades. Facilities that do not score well in long-term care often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in some of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this facility vaccinated a relatively low 85.71429 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the category of short-term care. In computing these short-term care grades, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to formulate a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. With its abysmal rating in this area, we were not surprised to learn that this place offered substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. The last item we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care score.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the next category, this nursing home didn't perform well here either. Due to a rock bottom grade of F in nursing, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. Nursing ratings are based largely on quantity of nursing care available. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at a few quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This facility was above average in two of the major statistics we considered, with solid scores for avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. These data points are usually good indicators of the quality of nursing care provided.
