Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it actually received a very impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that area with an A. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with a list of deficiencies flagged. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
We gave this facility just a D for our long-term care rating and that actually wound up as its second most respectable score. Facilities that don't fare well in this category often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 57.06941 percent of its residents. This is many points less than what we expected. To our surprise, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Nurse Quality
This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. There are a variety of criteria included in this category. Many of the subcategories are tied to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The last category we looked at was short-term care, where this facility received an abysmal grade here also. We gave it a lowly F in this category, which is obviously very concerning. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home provides substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.8 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
