Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with a grade of A-. This is a notably better score than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we had positive view of this nursing home's inspections.
Nurse Quality
The second highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. Nursing ratings are largely associated with a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a somewhat concerning figure which is well below the national average. Finally, nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we rated is long-term care, which was this nursing home's worst category. Unfortunately, we gave it an F for this category, which is clearly very disappointing. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 99.06542 percent of its patients, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
