Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This place was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best category is short-term care, but it still received just a D in that area. This turns out to be a relatively poor grade. In calculating our short-term care scores, we scrutinize the facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. This area is often a meaningful assessment of a facility's rehabilitation. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home offers significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. The nursing score includes a handful of datapoints, but the main one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. With a meager 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident daily, this place's nurse staffing levels were significantly below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we scored is long-term care. This nursing home received a very poor grade of F in this category. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 99.17127 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
