Facility Inspections
We also wanted to point out that this nursing home earned near flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A+ in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. This nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to resident safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In that category, we awarded this facility an A-. Nursing scores are based in large part on quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day.

In the category of short-term care, we try to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

The final category we scored was nursing, ended up being this nursing home's worst category. We gave this facility a grade of D in this area. This really was one of the couple of dings of a strong profile. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence 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 facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 98.809525 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
