Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall score was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that area, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility only earned a grade of D for its long-term care score, which was actually one of its higher category scores. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. After considering the quantity of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.

Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the area of short-term care, this nursing home received a grade of just D in that category. Our short-term care scores are presumably most critical for individuals in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this facility offers far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than a typical nursing home. The last item we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.6 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below average.
Nurse Quality
The last area we scored was nursing, in which this nursing home received a bottom of the barrel score in this area also. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this category, which is obviously very concerning. The nursing category weighs quite a few factors, most of which are tied to quantities of nurse staffing. With only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below the national average. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this facility also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average facility. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, these scores pulled down this facility's nursing grade significantly.
