Registered Staff Hours
Long-term Care Quality
Even though we graded this facility extremely poorly overall, it earned a better long-term care rating this year. We gave it a C in that category, which was the closest thing to a bright spot we can find for this place. Our long-term care grades are more meaningful for patients in need of more traditional services associated with activities of daily living. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. We were optimistic to find that this nursing home vaccinated 98.23009 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Facility Inspections
Unfortunately, this facility's second best category was inspections. Nevertheless, with just a D in this category, it still fared relatively poorly. One of the more critical factors in evaluating inspection reports is deficiencies. We would pay close attention to the severity of those deficiencies. This facility had 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a threat to patient safety or health. Lastly, we need to point out that this facility received large government fines in recent years of over $100,000. This generally suggests that a nursing home'spoor track record has been an issue for several years.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing score is primarily based on a facility's nurse staffing. With just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This place performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we analyzed was short-term care, where this facility was given a very poor score here also. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this category, which is definitely a major concern. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to forge a valuable measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze the nursing home's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Based on its abysmal rating in this category, we weren't surprised to learn that this nursing home provided substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
