Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections

These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Unfortunately, it does not look like we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality
Turning to the category of nursing care, this facility didn't perform quite as well in this area as some of the categories discussed above. Nevertheless, a grade of B- in this category is by no means a bad score. The nursing rating is based on several datapoints, however, the paramount one is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Finally, while this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this statistic.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed is short-term care, in which this nursing home received a grade of B-. This proved to be this facility's worst category. This is still not a terrible score. In the category of short-term care, we strive to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who returned home from the facility. We found that just 3.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
