Facility Inspections
Although we didn't grade this nursing home favorably overall, we did give it an excellent score in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This tells you that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
We also want to point out that this facility received a decent grade in our nursing category. We awarded it a grade of C in the area. Nursing scores are mostly associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, although this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this area.

Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home only received a grade of D for its short-term care score, which is well below average in this category. Short-term care grades are often employed to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation To offer quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed was long-term care, which was a weak spot for this facility. We awarded this nursing home a D for our long-term care category. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 95.04762 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
