Facility Inspections
On top of having a decent overall rating, we also wanted to point out that this place received favorable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in this area, with a grade of B+. This is a much better score than the facility's overall score. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this facility's more favorable category grades was in the category of long-term care. This wound up being its second most favorable category. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. In calculating our long-term care ratings, we assess the personal care offered to a nursing home's residents. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Fortunately, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 96.12676 percent of its residents. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of C. When computing our nursing grades, we analyze both staffing levels and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we graded is short-term care, which turned out to be this facility's worst area. We gave this facility a grade of D in this area. Short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this nursing home provides substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
