Facility Inspections
The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection grade. Its inspection grade was far superior to its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. While this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's long-term care rating ended up being one of its respectable grades. The nursing home received a B- in this category. In a long-term care environment, 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 residents. After considering the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. Frankly, we were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated only 77.77778 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

This is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This facility fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the final area, we gave this nursing home a D in our short-term care category. This is the nursing home's weakest category score. Short-term care grades are generally employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must have better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. With its grade in this category, we weren't stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the data we assessed. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
