Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
Even though we gave this nursing home a terrible overall grade, we gave it a B- for our nursing rating. Our nursing score features several subcategories. The most important factor is the number of hours nurses spend with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It scored well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.
Short-term Care Quality
Incredibly, we gave this nursing home a grade of B- for its short-term care rating, which isn't too bad of a score. Our short-term care grades are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. The hope is that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.

Facility Inspections
Sadly, this facility received a grade of just D in our inspection category. This is well below average grade. Our inspection ratings weigh many items on the nursing home's inspection reports. If you find severe deficiencies on the reports, this is generally a bad sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a risk to the well being of residents. This particular nursing home had a deficiency by government inspectors. Fortunately, it wasn't in a category that suggests that it caused a threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we rated was long-term care, which is a weak spot for this facility. We awarded this facility a D in our long-term care category. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in this category may not provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We discovered that this facility vaccinated just 74.751495 percent of its patients, which is not a very encouraging sign. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.
