Facility Inspections

Our inspection scores account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category tend to have few severe deficiencies. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

In fact, it offered fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final item we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
