Facility Inspections
While we did not rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to point out its relatively solid government inspections in recent years. We gave it a respectable grade of B+ in this category, which is much better than its overall grade. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with too many deficiencies flagged. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a positive grade in short-term care. This nursing home earned a grade of B in this category, which happens to be one of our more impressive grades. Short-term care ratings are based on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to this facility's poor nursing grade where it received an F. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with quality and quantity of nursing care. This place offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This facility fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we scored is long-term care. This facility received a very poor grade of F in that category. Facilities that receive this type of score in this category may not provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities offer. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 62.307693 percent of its residents. This is many points below average. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
