Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A+ for that area, which is one of our best scores. Our inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid facilities with a bunch of deficiencies flagged. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we rated this nursing home so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of D. In determining our nursing grades, we analyze both staffing levels and the training levels of those nurses. With just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily, this place's nurse staffing levels were far below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this nursing home's third highest score is short-term care. As it turns out, with a grade of D in this category, it still fared somewhat poorly. In computing these short-term care scores, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our goal is to create a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Based on its grade in this category, we were not stunned to find that this place was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. Honestly, this was about what we expected here. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we assessed is long-term care. We gave it an F in this area, which is a bottom of the barrel score. Facilities that do not fare well in this category typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in a few of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. Unfortunately, this facility vaccinated only 88.96552 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
