Facility Inspections
The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an excellent inspection score. In fact, its inspection score was far better than its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. Our inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this category typically have few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also was given a favorable long-term care grade. As a matter of fact, we awarded it a B+ in that category, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Facilities that do well in this category tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.595505 percent of its residents, which is much higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, it also earned an elite nursing rating. We gave this facility a grade of D. Nursing grades are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. This nursing home averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we rated is short-term care, turned out to be this facility's worst area. We awarded this facility a D in that category. This was one of just a few weak points in an otherwise impressive profile. In our short-term care score, we endeavor to craft a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
