Nurse Quality
On top of receiving a strong overall score, this facility performed well in our nursing category. We gave it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. In calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents and the level of skill of the nurses. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to its profile, this nursing home also earned a grade of B+ for its long-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this category. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 90.04739 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is slightly below what we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections
Turning to another of this facility's strengths, it also received a very impressive inspection grade. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of B+. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last category we graded, this nursing home received an impressive grade grade of B+ in our short-term care category. With this score, the nursing home wrapped up an elite report card. Short-term care grades are generally employed to judge a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to provide good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
