Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. We would argue that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of the deficiencies. This place received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.
Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Nursing ratings are based in large part on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home provides 1.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This place fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility ended up receiving a bottom of the barrel grade in our long-term care area. It was given an F in this category. Nursing homes that don't score well in this category often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be struggling in some of the areas of routine medical care we assessed. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 44.389206 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.14 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was short-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this category, which is a rock bottom score. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. With its score in this category, we were not surprised to learn that this place is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we looked at. The final item we considered in this category is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 33 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
