Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area typically have few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a decent grade in the area of long-term care, where it received a B-. For patients seeking a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 91.74312 percent of its patients. This is slightly below what we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an D. Our nursing rating looks at the facility's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This place averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our final area, this facility really didn't perform well. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this was this nursing home's weakest category. In computing our short-term care ratings, we scrutinize the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This category is frequently a fair measure of the facility's rehabilitation services. As you might expect, we discovered that this place offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical nursing home. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
