Nurse Quality
While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. When computing a facility's nursing rating, we look at the amount of time nurses are with residents as well as the levels of training of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, we also assessed several nursing quality measures. While this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did well in this statistic. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning residents at least once a day.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: D
Turning to the area of short-term care, this facility was awarded a grade of just D in this area. Sadly, this proved to be one of its better features. In determining our short-term care grades, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Given its score in this category, we weren't surprised to find that this nursing home is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected here. The last item we considered in this category is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.1 percent of its patients returning home. This was well below average.

Facility Inspections
Grade: F
Unfortunately, this place received an F for its inspection score. We would advise paying special attention to any deficiencies on a facility's inspection reports when it receives this poor of an inspection rating. We suggest you scrutinize the level of severity of the deficiencies. This particular nursing home was assessed 9 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a threat to patient safety or health. Lastly, we would like to point out that this place received large government fines amounting to more than $100,000. This generally signifies that a nursing home's poor performance spanned more than one year.
Long-term Care Quality
Grade: F
The final area we analyzed was long-term care. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this area, which is a poor grade. Long-term care grades in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. After we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. We were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 58.219177 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
