Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Inspection grades are based on many items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Additionally, we also wanted to note that this nursing home was given positive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our better grades in this area, with a B+. This turned out to be the facility's second highest grade. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are kept in good health. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the category of short-term care, this nursing home was given just a D in this category. In determining our short-term care grades, we scrutinize a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is frequently a reliable assessment of the facility's rehabilitation services. Not surprisingly, we learned that this place provides substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
Nurse Quality
This facility's worst category is nursing, which is the last area we looked at. We gave it a lowly F for this category. Even with several acceptable scores in other categories, this grade is still alarming so we felt obligated to make a note of it. When calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
