Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
This facility's best category grade came in nursing. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. There are a number of criteria within this grade. Many of the criteria relate to staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home's second best category grade came in the area of government inspections. In that area, we gave this facility a B. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a solid score in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a C. In the area of short-term care, we seek to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. We found that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is still important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored is long-term care. We gave it an abysmal F in this area, which is an abysmal grade. This is obviously a significant disappointment. Nursing homes that do not fare well in long-term care typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this nursing home vaccinated just 77.5076 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
