Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it an A for our short-term care rating. This score is much more impressive than its overall score, which would have been even worse without this grade. Short-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
We also awarded this facility a grade of B- for our nursing rating. Our nursing score is largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a somewhat alarming figure as it is well below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. It scored well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Facility Inspections
We wanted to point out this nursing home's inspection score where it received an F. With facilities that received this bad of an inspection grade, we would scrutinize the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility had one category G through L deficiency, which are among the more serious categories of deficiencies. This generally indicates that the deficiencies uncovered by inspectors had the potential to cause actual harm to patients. Lastly, we also need to point out that this nursing home received large government fines totaling over $100,000. This usually indicates that a nursing home's bad performance spanned several years.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we assessed is long-term care, where this facility was given an abysmal score in this area as well. Sadly, it received an F in this area, which is obviously a major concern. For prospective patients in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. One of the data points we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 99.31035 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
