Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Even though we gave this facility a very poor overall grade, we gave it a grade of B in the category of nursing. The nursing grade weighs numerous datapoints. The most important one is the number of hours nurses spend with residents. This particular nursing home provided 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving patients more often.
Short-term Care Quality
We were also stunned to learn that this facility earned a decent short-term care grade in our assessment. We gave it a C in this category. In determining our short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This category is frequently a meaningful assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

This facility was hit with 4 deficiencies by CMS. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they created a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home received significant government fines in recent years of over $100,000. This typically indicates that a facility's bad track record spanned multiple years.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the last area, this nursing home really did not fare well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in long-term care it is often a bad sign for resident care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. One of the criteria we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to a relatively low 41.63424 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best feature in this category.
