Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
The next highest category we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a B-. Our long-term care ratings are based on the facility's amount of nursing services. This means a vast range of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine medical services. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 99.619774 percent of its residents. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's third highest category was short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a C. In the category of short-term care, we seek to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 5.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Nurse Quality
The final category we rated is nursing. We awarded this facility a grade of C in this category. In calculating our nursing scores, we weigh both staffing levels and the training levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a place has quality controls in place.
