Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this area typically have very few of these severe deficiencies.

Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored was long-term care, is this nursing home's least impressive category. We awarded this nursing home a D in this area. This really was one of the couple of weak links of a quality profile. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 96.875 percent of its residents, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this place also keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
