This facility also was given a positive short-term care score. Indeed, we awarded it a B in that area, which happens to be one of our better.

This rating is often a reliable measure of the facility's rehabilitation services.

One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final area we looked at was long-term care. This facility was given a C in this category. In calculating our long-term care scores, we scrutinize the personal care received by the facility's residents.

Fortunately, this nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is a very solid datapoint. This nursing home also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
