Facility Inspections
This facility received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite minor. While this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple of minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility received its second most favorable category grade in the area of long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in this category, which is a reasonably acceptable grade. For patients in need of a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. The nursing rating assesses a handful of datapoints, but the primary consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which is not an impressive total. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. While this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed well in this subcategory. This is typically a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of turning residents more frequently.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we graded was short-term care, which ended up being this facility's least impressive category. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. Short-term care grades are critical for residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Given its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to discover that this place is well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the measures we assessed. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar statistics was damning for this facility's short-term care score.
