Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our inspection ratings are tied to pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this area have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. 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 positive view of this facility's inspections.
Long-term Care Quality
This facilities next most favorable category was long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this category. Our long-term care ratings are important for residents looking for non-healthcare services such as personal care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This place keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Another strength of this facility is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an D. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our next area, this nursing home really didn't fare very well. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this was its poorest grade. Our short-term care grades are likely more important for folks requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually mandates more highly-skilled nursing. This means not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
