Facility Inspections
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable inspection report this year. As a result, it received a decent grade in that category with a score of B-. These inspection grades weigh several factors, 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 nursing home received 9 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this facility only received a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which happens to be one of its better category scores. In determining our short-term care grades, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to formulate a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. With its grade in this area, we were not stunned to find that this facility was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Frankly, this was what we expected to find. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. When calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are caring for residents as well as the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at was long-term care. We gave it a lowly F in this area, which is a bottom of the barrel grade. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in this category it generally means the facility didn't perform well in our quality measures relating to resident care. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this facility gave the vaccine to a relatively low 88.764046 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
