Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our nursing rating. We assessed the qualifications of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses worked with residents, in determining our rating in this area. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is far below average. Lastly, while this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also didn't grade out poorly in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a B- for that category, which ended up being another one of its more favorable grades. In our short-term care category, we strive to create a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a nursing home's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The key is determining what bearing this had on quality of care. The final measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Facility Inspections
Unfortunately, this facility received an F for its inspection grade. This is a particularly important category. Scores in this range often mean we found some red flags on the nursing home's inspections. When a nursing home has this poor of an inspection grade, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This particular facility was hit with one category G through L deficiency, which rank among the more severe categories of deficiencies. This generally indicates that the deficiencies identified by CMS had potential to cause actual harm to patients. Another area of concern is that CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our next area, this nursing home really did not perform well in this area either. Due to an abysmal grade of F in long-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this nursing home vaccinated 75.86207 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be significantly less than what we were hoping for. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.
