Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
While we were fairly low on this facility overall, we awarded it an A for our inspections rating. This score is significantly more impressive than the facility's overall score. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid nursing homes that have a long list of deficiencies. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next highest category came in the area of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a C. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. Once we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. We were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated just 77.77778 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only received a D for its short-term care score, which is not a very good score. Short-term care grades are often used to assess a nursing home's rehabilitation services To have high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. With a grade in this range in this area, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in multiple staffing areas we looked at. It provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most facilities. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next category we rated is nursing, in which this facility received a rock bottom score in this category as well. It received an abysmal F for this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. Our nursing rating weighs several subcategories. The most heavily weighted variable is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This facility averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is an alarmingly low total. On top of receiving below average marks for nursing hours, this facility was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and found this place was at roughly 1.5 times the national average in this metric. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that so many pressure ulcers are preventable with better nursing care. This statistic pulled down this nursing home's nursing grade substantially.
