Nurse Quality
It should also be noted that this nursing home's nursing grade outpaced its overall rating. We gave it a B+ for its nursing grade. The nursing score weighs many subcategories. The most important one is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This facility provided 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more impressive category grades came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of B+. In our short-term care category, we strive to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The last statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's third most favorable area turned out to be its long-term care score, where it was awarded a grade of C. Long-term care grades are often used to gauge a facility's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a skilled nursing facility. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 87.748344 percent of its residents. This is quite a bit lower than what we expected. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Facility Inspections
The last category we looked at is inspections. This facility didn't receive glowing inspections in recent years. As a result, we had to give it an F in this area. Since this information is collected by independent government inspectors, we tend to heavily weight negative feedback in this category. This really pulled down this facility's overall score. With facilities that received this bad of an inspection score, we would scrutinize any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular nursing home had 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest they created a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we want to point out that this facility was assessed large government fines in recent years of more than $100,000. This often indicates that a poor performance has been an issue for several years.
