Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home an A for short-term care. In our short-term care grade, we strive to create a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 7.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category grades, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B+ for our inspections rating. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Nurse Quality
This facility received a very good nursing grade this year as well. It received one of our better scores in that category with a grade of B+. Our nursing rating is based on quite a few components, however, the primary one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we analyzed was long-term care, where we awarded it a strong grade of B. This nursing home truly did not have any weak grades. Facilities that excel in this category tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 98.10426 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is often a life or death illness for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home doesn't take any chances. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
