Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this nursing home outperformed its overall score in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our highest scores in this area with a grade of A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors 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. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple of minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of C. Our nursing score is mostly tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be indicators of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next best category is long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a C. In the category of long-term care, we look at the amount of care offered by a facility, rather than more sophisticated services. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's weakest category was short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. In this area, we gave this facility a grade of just D. In determining our short-term care ratings, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. With its weak score in this area, we weren't shocked to find this place offers far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents that eventually returned home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
