Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Although this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it received a decent score in nursing. We awarded it a B- for that category. We looked at the levels of nurses working for the facility, as well as the quantity of time the nurses worked with residents, in determining our grade in this area. This particular nursing home provided just 0.5 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This figure is far below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next highest category is short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. Our short-term care grades are likely more critical for folks requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing. This means not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The key is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last item we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.3 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Facility Inspections
This facility received mediocre government inspections in recent years. We awarded them a C in this area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. This place had 3 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but fortunately none were category G through L deficiencies. This tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to resident health or safety. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we assessed is long-term care. For that category, we gave this nursing home a C. In the area of long-term care, we look at the amount of services provided by a facility, as opposed to more healthcare-oriented services. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.63946 percent of its patients. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
