Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
On top of earning a strong overall grade, this nursing home performed well in short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest grades. In calculating our short-term care scores, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to formulate a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The last measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 6.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections. We awarded it an A- for that category. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. This facility was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to resident health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

This nursing home vaccinated 99.36306 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is much higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
The last area we scored turned out to be this nursing home's worst category. However, even in its weakest link we still awarded it an acceptable grade of B- in our nursing category. Our nursing score consists of quite a few factors, however, the main consideration is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This place averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is a very low figure. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in some quality-focused metrics. We especially like to look at the percent of patients who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. These statistics are decent indicators of the quality of nursing care, since better care can reduce these issues.
