Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Few facilities performed better in this category. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded an impressive grade in our long-term care category. We gave this facility a better than average grade of B in this area. Facilities that receive this type of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are kept in good health. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. This is a proven method to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This facilities next most favorable category is short-term care. We awarded it a B- in this area. This is basically a middle of the road score in this category. Our short-term care ratings are presumably more meaningful for people in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Nurse Quality
The last area we analyzed was nursing. We gave this facility a grade of D in the area of nursing, making this the facility's worst category grade. We assessed the skill-level of nurses at the facility, as well as the number of hours those nurses were with residents, in computing our grade in this category. With only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were far below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
