Long-term Care Quality
This facility fared well in long-term care. We awarded it an impressive grade of A- for that category. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 99.167656 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is often a life threatening illness for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of B+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Our inspection ratings are based on several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent government inspections. Places that excel in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. It doesn't look like we have deficiency data for this nursing home. We wish we had more data for this facility. Without having access to information regarding deficiencies, it is difficult to assess this nursing home in this area.

Nurse Quality
The next area we looked at was nursing, where we gave this facility an F. This was definitely one of this facility's major weaknesses. Our nursing rating focuses on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of skill of those nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these datapoints to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we graded is short-term care. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this category, which is a very poor grade. This is certainly a major concern. Short-term care grades are important for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing services. This means a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With a grade of this caliber in this area, we weren't shocked to find this facility was well below average in two of the key staffing figures we looked at. In fact, it supplied significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.6 percent of its residents returning home. This was quite a bit below average.
