Facility Inspections
In addition to having a decent overall grade, we also want to point out that this place received favorable government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a B+. This is a much better score than the facility's overall grade. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. This place was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This indicates that the inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that category, which is one of our better scores. Nursing ratings are mostly based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received a favorable long-term care grade. In fact, we awarded it a B in that category, which is one of our more favorable scores. For long-term care residents, the primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 21.3628 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which happens to be a few points less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we graded was short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is obviously concerning. In the category of short-term care, we seek to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. With a score this poor for this category, we were not shocked to discover this place was well below average in multiple staffing areas we focus on. The nursing home provided far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
