Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's nursing score was better than its overall score. With a strong performance in this category, it received one of our better scores in that category with a B+. Our nursing grade focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The next highest area we gave this nursing home in any category came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a B-. Our long-term care scores are vital for patients seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. One of the criteria we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to just 74.21875 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next best area ended up being its short-term care score, where it was awarded a C. Our short-term care grades are arguably more important for people in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. This means not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. We were surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. It provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The final item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that just 4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
Moving on our last category of inspections, this facility received a horrible grade. With an F in the inspection category, this nursing home's overall grade was pulled down significantly. With nursing homes that received this poor of an inspection grade, we recommend scrutinizing any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This facility had 3 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they created a risk to resident safety or health. Lastly, we need to point out that this nursing home was assessed large government fines in recent years totaling over $100,000. This often indicates that a poor track record has been an issue for multiple years.
