Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. In fact, its inspection grade was far better than its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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 had a generally positive view of this facility's recent inspections.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a solid score in the category of short-term care, where it received a grade of C. In computing our short-term care scores, we look at a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This grade is more often than not a fair measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. We were surprised to find that this nursing home was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The final measure we assessed in this category is the number of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing rating. We gave this nursing home a score of D. Nursing grades are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This facility averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these datapoints to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we looked at was long-term care. We gave it an abysmal F in this category, which is a poor grade. This is certainly a major concern. If you are looking for anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinated 96.139 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
