Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this nursing home really outperformed its overall grade in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best grades in that category with an A. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the area of long-term care, we gave this nursing home a score of A- in that area. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.28571 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing score. In fact, we gave this facility a grade of D. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we rated is short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's least impressive area. Unfortunately, we gave it an F for this area, which is certainly very concerning. Our short-term care scores are arguably more important for people in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing. This means not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. In this nursing home's case, it looks like it provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. Finally, we considered the number of residents who returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
