Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its nearly flawless health inspection reports in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we gave it a superb long-term care grade. Indeed, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. When facilities receive this kind of score in long-term care it is usually a good sign for resident care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 96.167244 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the area of short-term care, this facility was awarded just a D in that category. Our short-term care scores are based in part on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we considered the number of patients who returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest category was nursing, which is the final category we scored. For this area, we gave this nursing home a D. The nursing rating weighs a variety of data points. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spent with residents. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This figure is quite a bit below average. In addition to its weak nursing hour totals, this nursing home also earned poor marks in some of the quality-based measures we considered in computing our nursing scores. We found that a higher percentage of this nursing home's patients suffered falls which led to serious injury. We would argue that many falls could be prevented with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this facility receiving a terrible nursing grade.
