Facility Inspections
The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall score is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher scores in that category, with an A. This is a much better grade than the place's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 3 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.

This is well below average. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this place had bad scores in many of the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings.
