Facility Inspections
While we gave this place a terrible overall score, we gave it a B+ for our inspections category. This is due to the nursing home receiving a quality inspection report this year. Arguably the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. It is generally best to avoid places that had a long list of deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 7 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
Included in this nursing home's litany of terrible grades was its F in the category of long-term care. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means the nursing home didn't perform well in our measures relating to patient care. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 92.370575 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home wound up receiving a a terrible score in our short-term care category. It received a lowly F in this category. Our short-term care grades are thought to be more meaningful for those requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually requires additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Given its abysmal grade in this area, we were not surprised to discover this nursing home offers significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The final category we rated is nursing. This facility was given a very poor grade of F in that area. Our nursing grade weighs a variety of subcategories. The most important variable is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This place offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also looked at some quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This place was above average in two of the metrics we focus on, with solid marks for avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. These metrics are typically reliable measures of the quality of nursing care provided.
