Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best area is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this category. Our long-term care scores are more meaningful for those requiring more conventional services related to personal care. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours was vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a solid grade of B-. Our short-term care scores are believed to be more critical for residents in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. The facility supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 6.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next category we scored was nursing, which turned out to be a weak link for this nursing home. We gave this facility a grade of D for the area of nursing. In computing our nursing scores, we analyze both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This facility averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This place performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
