Facility Inspections
Grade: A-plus
On top of performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A+. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Grade: B-plus
This facility also was given an impressive long-term care grade. In fact, we gave it an above average grade of B+ in this category. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 98.32869 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is too frequently a life or death health condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility does not take any chances. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
Grade: B-minus
The third best area we gave this nursing home in any area came in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. Our short-term care grades are presumably more meaningful for residents requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually well below average.
Nurse Quality
Grade: D
Switching gears to our last area, we awarded this facility a grade of D for our nursing category. This was the facility's worst category grade. Unfortunately, this grade pulled down the facility's overall profile to some degree. Our nursing grade weighs many data points, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This place offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these metrics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
