Places that score well in this category tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety.

This facility was awarded impressive grades in the area of short-term care as well. Indeed, we awarded it one of our most superb scores in that category with a area of A-.

Skilled nursing includes a broad scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy.

Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
