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. Inspection scores are tied to datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. 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. 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
We were also pleasantly surprised to find that this nursing home received a solid long-term care rating this year. We gave it a C in that area. Long-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of nursing services. This includes a vast scope of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine medical services. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Remarkably, we gave this nursing home a grade of C for our short-term care grade, which really isn't too bad of a score. In determining our short-term care ratings, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This score is more often than not a useful assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The tricky part is determining what effect this had on quality of care. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we assessed was nursing. This facility received a bottom of the barrel grade of F in this category. Nursing grades are primarily based on a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. In addition to its subpar nursing hours, this nursing home also received poor marks in many of the quality-based measures we considered in computing our nursing scores. We found that more of this nursing home's residents suffered falls which led to serious injury. We believe that many falls could likely be prevented with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this facility receiving a poor nursing grade.
