Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher grades in that area, with an A. This is a much better grade than the facility's overall grade, which was decent but certainly not elite. Inspection grades account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this facility a grade of B+ in our long-term care category. This happens to be one of our more impressive grades. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 99.35897 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility an impressive score in short-term care. This facility earned a B in this category, which turns out to be one of our more impressive scores. Our short-term care grades are believed to be more important for people in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Turning to our fourth area, this nursing home really did not fare very well. With an abysmal grade of F in nursing, this was this nursing home's weakest category. The nursing grade is based on a handful of factors, but the most important consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. With only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily, this place's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below the national average. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this place also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of patients experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
