Facility Inspections
Although we gave this nursing home a bad overall grade, we gave it a fairly respectable grade in the category of inspections, where we gave it a B-. This was better than its other category grades. We believe that one of the most important factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of the deficiencies. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. 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.
Short-term Care Quality
One of this nursing home's more favorable category grades came in the category of short-term care. This ended up being its second most favorable category. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a C. Our short-term care ratings are meaningful for people in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The last item we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

This includes a vast spectrum of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.53052 percent of its patients. This place keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
The last category we assessed is nursing. We gave this facility a grade of C in that area. Our nursing score focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also baked some quality measures into our nursing scores. This nursing home was subpar in two of the major areas we focus on, with below average scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are typically good indicators of the quality of nursing care offered.
