Facility Inspections
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home really outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best grades in this category with an A. Our inspection ratings account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category typically have very few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of long-term care, where it received a B-. For prospective residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 88.547485 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of C. In computing our nursing ratings, we look at both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our last area, we gave this nursing home a grade of D in the area of short-term care. This is the facility's least impressive category score. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The final measure we looked at in this area is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.7 percent of its patients returning home.
