Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its excellent health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite insignificant. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's short-term care grade ended up being one of its more favorable features. The nursing home received a grade of B- in this category. With our short-term care category, we seek to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the facility's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The more important thing is determining what effect this had on the quality of care. The last item we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below average.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second worse score is long-term care, where it received a grade of just D in that category. This is a relatively poor score. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is higher than the average nursing home. Surprisingly, this facility also keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to the fourth area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of D in the area of nursing. This is the nursing home's worst category rating. We looked at the levels of nurses at the facility, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses worked with residents, in computing our rating in this category. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, this place's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
