Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also didn't fare poorly in the category of short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that area, which happens to be among its better scores. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below average.

Nurse Quality
Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. When calculating our nursing grades, we weigh both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. With just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were well below the national average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we analyzed was long-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this category, which is a bottom of the barrel grade. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means the nursing home didn't perform well in our measures relating to patient care. One of the criteria we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 87.35084 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
