Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, this facility also received top notch government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our best scores in this category, with an A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.

We also awarded this facility a middle of the road score in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-.

This nursing home's third most favorable category was its short-term care grade, where it was given a B-. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to gauge a facility's performance with rehabilitation To provide high-end rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
The last category we assessed is nursing. For this category, we gave this facility a C. There are several subcategories included in this area. Most of these factors reflect levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, our nursing scores also factor in some quality-focused measures. We like to look at the percent of patients who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these data points are measures of the quality of nursing care, since superior care can reduce these issues.
