Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our short-term care rating. In computing our short-term care ratings, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. This grade is typically a solid measure of a facility's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The more important thing is determining what effect this had on the quality of care. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below average.
Facility Inspections
Interestingly, this facility's awful overall score can't really be attributed to its government inspection reports. We awarded it a C for inspections. Inspection ratings are tied to several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to the well being of residents. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent danger to patient health or safety. Lastly, this facility was flagged by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We prefer to avoid facilities with this designation. Please do your best to find an alternative nursing home.

This nursing home also didn't perform terribly in the area of nursing. In fact, we awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is another one its better scores. Nursing ratings are primarily based on a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a low total compared with most other facilities. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we scored is long-term care, where this facility received a rock bottom score here also. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F in this category, which is obviously somewhat alarming. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in this category it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the place is not as well-staffed. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 31.818182 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
