Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an elite inspection grade. Its inspection grade was far superior to its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave this facility an A. Our inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In that area, we awarded this facility an B-. Nursing ratings are primarily based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a relatively low total compared with most other facilities. Finally, our nursing ratings also factor in quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its patients.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home was given its third best category score in the category of long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of C in this category, which is a decent grade. In calculating our long-term care scores, we analyze the assistance with daily living received by the nursing home's patients. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. This nursing home also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we rated was short-term care. We awarded this facility a D in the area of short-term care, making this the nursing home's worst grade. In the area of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 3.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
