Facility Inspections
The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better scores in that category, with an A+. This is a much better score than the facility's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a middle of the road score in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a B-. Our long-term care grades are based on a facility's quantity of nursing care. This includes a broad scope of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. After assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinated 94.46494 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home received its third most favorable category grade in the area of short-term care. We gave this facility a C in this area, which is a respectable score. In the category of short-term care, we try to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.2 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Nurse Quality
The last category we scored was nursing, which is a weak link for this facility. We gave this nursing home a grade of D for our nursing category. In computing a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the number of hours nurses are caring for residents and the skill levels of the nurses. With a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were well below average. Unfortunately, this place also had abysmal marks in several of the quality-based metrics to pair with its weak nursing hour totals. For starters, we looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than twice the national average in this datapoint.
