Facility Inspections
While we did not have many positive things to say about this nursing home's overall score, it earned a respectable inspection report this year. It received a decent score in that area with a B-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
We also awarded this facility a grade of C for our nursing rating. When calculating our nursing grades, we look at both nursing hours and the skill levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place surprisingly excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third best category turned out to be short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a C. In crafting these short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to create a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who returned home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we scored is long-term care, which is a weak link for this nursing home. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in the area of long-term care. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. Fortunately, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
