Facility Inspections
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. Inspection scores are tied to pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This particular nursing home received 15 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the category of long-term care. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it typically means the facility didn't perform well in our measures relating to resident care. After assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. We were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated 38.071068 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which happens to be quite a bit less than what we expected. To our surprise, this facility actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's poor nursing grade where it received an F. Nursing scores are primarily associated with the facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these datapoints to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we scored is short-term care. It received an F for this area, which is a poor grade. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to forge a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
