This place was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe.

The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category.

We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Turning to the next category, this facility also received a score of B for its short-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this category. Our short-term care grades are meaningful for patients requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Switching gears to the fourth area, this facility was given a C for long-term care, which is a respectable rating. Long-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's volume of nursing care. This includes a vast range of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine medical services. Once we assessed the volume of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. We were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated just 78.50467 percent of its residents against pneumonia. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
