Facility Inspections
While we were not very complementary of this nursing home's overall grade, it received a very impressive inspection report this year. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best scores in that category with an A-. Arguably the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. It is typically in your best interest to avoid places that have too many severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a decent score in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must have better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The critical question is whether this also affected quality of care. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. Nursing scores are heavily correlated with quality and quantity of nursing care. This nursing home offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these datapoints to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth area, this facility didn't perform well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as terrible as it gets. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 95.68528 percent of its patients, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
