Long-term Care Quality
We gave this facility one of our better scores in long-term care, where it earned a B+. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are kept in good health. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is far higher than the majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In that area, we awarded this facility an B+. The nursing score analyzes a handful of datapoints, but the paramount consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. 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 place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections
Turning to our inspection category, it appears this nursing home has earned respectable inspections in recent years as well. We gave it a B- in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
Our final category is short-term care, in which we awarded this facility a C in this category. In the category of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.9 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
