Facility Inspections
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility really outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our highest grades in that area with a grade of A-. Inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. This facility received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
The next highest category we awarded this facility in any area came in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. Our short-term care grade is often used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must provide better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this facility provided data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's third most favorable category is long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B-. Our long-term care grades are critical for prospective residents looking for non-healthcare services such as personal care. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 70 percent of its patients. This is several points below the national average. Fortunately, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The final area we rated is nursing. We gave this facility a C in that area. Nursing scores are tied to nurse staffing levels. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a somewhat concerning figure as it is well below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
