Facility Inspections
On top of being a great nursing home overall, it also received A+ health inspections recently. Its inspections were nearly flawless. Inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was given impressive scores in the category of long-term care as well. In fact, we awarded it one of our strongest grades in that area with a area of A-. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 99.30796 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility received a strong short-term care grade as well. We gave it one of our better scores in that category with a score of B. In our short-term care category, we endeavor to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 5.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
The final category we analyzed is nursing, where this facility was given a grade of B-. While this turned out to be its least impressive category rating, this is still not a bad grade. In determining a nursing home's nursing rating, we weigh the amount of time nurses spend with residents and the level of skill of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
