Facility Inspections
B-
Historical
Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. In fact, the facility received very impressive inspection report this year. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Lastly, this nursing home was cited by CMS for possible abuse or neglect. This is generally a really bad sign. We would never recommend this facility.
Short-term Care Quality
D
Historical
Moving on to the category of short-term care, this facility received just a D in that category. Unfortunately, this ended up being one of its best areas. In the category of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Based on its grade in this area, we were not stunned to discover that this place was well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the data we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected here. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We were surprised to find that it performed better in this area, with 49.2 percent of its residents returning home. This was just about this nursing home's sole highlight in this category.

Nurse Quality
F
Historical
We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing rating assesses the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of those nurses and the amount of time spent with patients. This nursing home provides 3.1 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at some quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This place was above average in two of the major metrics we considered, with good scores for avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are generally reliable measures of the quality of nursing care offered.
Long-term Care Quality
F
Historical
The final category we analyzed is long-term care, where this nursing home received a poor grade in this category as well. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this category, which is obviously somewhat alarming. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 98.14503 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. To our surprise, this nursing home also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 1.08 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
