In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this facility excelled in our short-term care rating, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes fared better in this category. Our short-term care grades are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists.

Nurse Quality
The next highest grade we gave this nursing home came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. This wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, but a grade in this range is not the end of the world. Our nursing score analyzes many factors, however, the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, while this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared well in this area.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed is long-term care, turned out to be this facility's weakest category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this category. This was one of just a few weak points on an otherwise impressive profile. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the kind of consistent around the clock care that some other facilities provide. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 88.98305 percent of its patients. This is multiple points less than what we expected. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
