Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our nursing rating. The nursing grade weighs a handful of factors, but the primary consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This place averages just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, which is not an impressive total. Finally, although this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this metric.
Long-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home only received a D for its long-term care grade, which ended up being one of its more favorable category scores. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 29.57359 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.

Facility Inspections
This nursing home did not receive favorable inspection reports in recent years. In fact, it only received a grade of D for its inspection grade. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. We would scrutinize the level of severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home had one category J or K deficiency, which rank among the worst categories of deficiencies. Lastly, we need to point out that this facility received significant government fines in recent years totaling over $100,000. This generally indicates that a facility's poor track record spanned several years.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's weakest area is short-term care, which is the final area we assessed. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of just D. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most important for folks requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires more skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Based on its grade in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of the number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the data we looked at. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
