Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this nursing home really outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best scores in that category with an A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's second most favorable category was long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B-. Our long-term care grade is generally used to score a facility's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services offered by a skilled nursing facility. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We found that this nursing home provided the vaccine to only 66.53062 percent of its residents, which is well below average. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of nursing care, with a grade of C. The nursing score weighs a handful of subcategories, but the most important one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below average. Lastly, our nursing ratings also consider quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this facility actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our next category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D in the area of short-term care. This was the nursing home's weakest category grade. Short-term care scores are vital for residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this place offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
