Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this facility overall, we awarded it a B for our inspections rating. This grade is much better than the facility's overall score. Arguably the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid places that had too many deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In fact, nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an C. Nursing grades are largely associated with the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics. Although this nursing home got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this metric. This is often a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of turning residents more often.

Short-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only received a D for its short-term care score, which is not a score to write home about. With our short-term care assessment, we try to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Based on its abysmal grade in this category, we weren't shocked to learn that this nursing home provides far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we rated was long-term care, which is a weak link for this nursing home. We awarded this facility a grade of D in long-term care. For prospective patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.47909 percent of its residents, which is a very respectable percentage. Surprisingly, this facility also keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
