Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this facility a grade of A+ for its inspection grade. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall rating. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This indicates that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next best area turned out to be its long-term care score, where it was awarded a grade of B-. For residents looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important.

Nurse Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing score. In fact, we gave this facility a grade of D. There are a host of criteria within this category. Most of these criteria are tied to nurse staffing. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we rated is short-term care, which is a weak spot for this nursing home. We awarded this facility a grade of just D for the area of short-term care. Short-term care scores are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With a score in this range for this category, we were not stunned to discover that this place was below average in two of the key staffing figures we assess. It provided significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The last statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.
