Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its nearly flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A+ in this category. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a favorable score in long-term care. This nursing home received a B in this category, which turns out to be one of our higher scores. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care tend to provide consistent around the clock care to ensure patients are well cared for. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 90.909096 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is somewhat less than we were hoping for but still a decent percentage. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

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. Lastly, nursing scores also consider quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses aids to assist its patients.

The final area we assessed is short-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's weakest category. We gave this nursing home a D in that category. Of course, this grade pulled down the facility's overall profile to a certain degree. In the area of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
