Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. 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 still had a generally positive view of this facility's inspections.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more favorable category grades came in the category of long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. Facilities that excel in this category typically provide residents with better supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 99.85549 percent of its residents, which is better than the average nursing home. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of C. In determining a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the number of hours nurses are seeing residents and the levels of training of those nurses. This facility provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure which is well below the national average. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses aids to assist its patients.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's least impressive area is short-term care, which is the final category we scored. It received an abysmal F for this category. Even with some acceptable grades in other categories, this grade is still concerning so we wanted to point it out. Our short-term care scores are thought to be most meaningful for folks needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires more skilled nursing. This means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Considering its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the figures we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected here. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 3.7 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.
