Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it actually received an impressive inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best scores in that category with an A. Inspection scores are tied to several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these reports. You should especially avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing grade. In that category, we gave this facility an F. Nursing ratings are based largely on nurse staffing levels. This place offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This figure is quite a bit below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality
Tragically, this facility received an F for its long-term care grade. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home gave the vaccine to a relatively low 64.590164 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our final area, this facility didn't perform well in this category either. With an abysmal grade of F in short-term care, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. Short-term care ratings are crucial for individuals requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates additional skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. With a score of this caliber in this area, we weren't shocked to find that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing figures we looked at. In fact, it provided significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 2.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
