Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. This score is better than this place's overall grade. Our inspection scores are tied to many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. We would not recommend this facility under any circumstance.
Nurse Quality
We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of B-. Nursing scores are largely based on the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a grade of B- in this area. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. The hope is that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the number of residents who returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we assessed is long-term care. For that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. In the area of long-term care, we assess the amount of services provided by a facility, rather than more medically-intensive services. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home gave the vaccine to only 89.32039 percent of its residents, which is not a very encouraging sign. Fortunately, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
