Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of C in that category. The nursing rating considers a number of datapoints. The most important factor is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This nursing home provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure which is well below average. Finally, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it did very well in this statistic.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a C for that category. Other aspects of its profile were the source of this facility's rock bottom overall grade. We believe that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially focus on the severity of the deficiencies. This facility had 3 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This means that this facility dodged the more significant classes of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility only received a D for its short-term care score, which is not a very good score. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. With its poor rating in this category, we weren't stunned to learn this nursing home offers far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most nursing homes. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's weakest category is long-term care, which is the last area we assessed. In this category, we awarded this facility a D. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is typically a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. We were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated a relatively low 78.94737 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This is its best score in this category.
