Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. These inspection ratings 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 nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more favorable category grades came in the category of short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B. In computing these short-term care scores, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to devise a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality
Moving on to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing rating. We gave this facility an D. There are many datapoints within this category. Most of the datapoints reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at was long-term care, which was a weak link for this nursing home. We gave this facility a grade of just D in the area of long-term care. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 99.11894 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. Surprisingly, this place also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
