Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. 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 deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 1.11 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a much better hospitalization rate than the average nursing home.
