Facility Inspections
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few relatively minor dings are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
Among this facility's other strengths is its elite nursing grade. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of A-. The nursing category includes several subcategories, most of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality
The next highest category we awarded this nursing home in any area came in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a B-. Our short-term care ratings are thought to be most important for folks needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at was long-term care. This facility received a very good long-term care score this year, with a B-. Even though this wasn't nearly as impressive as some of its other category grades, this remains an acceptable score for that area. In determining our long-term care scores, we size up the personal care received by the nursing home's patients. Once we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
