Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
This nursing home received a nursing score which is stronger than its overall grade. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this area. When calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we look at the amount of time nurses are caring for residents and the level of skill of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Facility Inspections
Surprisingly, this nursing home actually earned a good score in the area of inspections as well. We gave it a grade of B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. We believe that one of the most important factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This means CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Short-term Care Quality
The third category we assessed is short-term care, where this facility was awarded a B- in this category. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored is long-term care, is this facility's least impressive category. We gave this facility a grade of D in this area. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is an above average total. To our surprise, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
