This nursing home's next most favorable area was short-term care. We awarded it a B- in this area. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. Our short-term care scores are meaningful for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The more important thing is determining what bearing this had on quality of care. The final item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Facility Inspections
Turning our final category of inspections, this facility received an F in this area. This score was very detrimental to this nursing home's overall grade. With nursing homes that received this bad of an inspection rating, we would scrutinize any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular nursing home was hit with 11 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a risk to patient health or safety. Lastly, we would like to point out that this place was assessed significant government fines recently in excess of $50,000. This often means that inspectors grew tired after several years of bad inspections.
