Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home performed even better in our inspections category which is based on the nursing home's recent inspection reports. We gave it a grade of A- for this area, which is one of our best scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. This turned out to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an A-. The nursing rating is based on quite a few datapoints, but the most important one is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality
The third area we assessed is short-term care. It received one of our best scores in that area, with a grade of A-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to gauge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation To offer good rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed is long-term care, which is a weak spot for this facility. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D for our long-term care category, making this the nursing home's weakest category grade. We'd nevertheless suggest that you consider all of a nursing home's grades. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent around the clock care that some other nursing homes provide. After assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. We were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated 85.29412 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is significantly less than what we expected. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
