Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A for our inspections rating. Our inspection grades are based on pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility also was given favorable short-term care grades this year. Indeed, we awarded it one of our higher grades in that area, with a grade of B+. Our short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home.

In calculating our nursing scores, we assess both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as employing a policy of moving residents more frequently.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our fourth area, we gave this nursing home a grade of D in the area of long-term care. This was the facility's worst category rating. Sadly, this grade hurt the facility's overall grade to a certain degree. If you are seeking anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care grades. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 94.0239 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
