Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
While we gave this facility a poor overall score, we gave it a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a B-. This was certainly better than its other category grades. The nursing grade includes many subcategories. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This particular nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below average. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
Facility Inspections
We awarded this nursing home a grade of C for our inspections rating. This score is more respectable than the facility's overall grade. Inspection scores are based on many datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This facility was assessed 7 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were category G through L deficiencies. This indicates that it dodged the more serious classes of deficiencies. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received some government fines in recent years.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next best category ended up being short-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a C. Our short-term care ratings are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. In fact, it provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our next category, this facility did not perform well in this area either. Due to a poor grade of F in long-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. Nursing homes that don't score well in this category often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 36.90852 percent of its residents. This is significantly lower than the national average. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.
