Facility Inspections
We also wanted to point out the fact that this facility has earned nearly flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite minor. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. Nursing turned out to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an A. We looked at the levels of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours the nurses worked with residents, in calculating our rating in this category. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality
Turning our third category, we gave this nursing home a score of A- for its long-term care score. This is a first-rate score. For residents in need of a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 88.52459 percent of its patients. This is somewhat below what we were hoping for but still a decent percentage. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at is short-term care. This nursing home was awarded a very good nursing rating in our assessment, with a grade of B. Even though this was not quite as strong as a few of its other category grades, this is still one of the better scores for this area. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
