Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place really excelled in the category of inspections, where it received an A-. Few facilities performed better in this area. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we had a generally favorable view of this nursing home's inspections.
Nurse Quality
This facility performed well in nursing. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is one of our best grades. Nursing ratings are primarily based on a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, our nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home was awarded its next most favorable category score in the area of long-term care. We awarded this facility a grade of C in this category, which is an acceptable grade. For prospective residents looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is higher than most nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
The last category we rated is short-term care. In this category, we gave this facility a grade of C. Our short-term care grade is generally used to judge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we looked at. The facility offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this is adversely impacting the quality of care. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
