Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this facility fared well in short-term care. We awarded it an A- for that category. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to forge a fair barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive grades, we gave this facility an B+ for our inspections rating. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically have few severe deficiencies. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. In determining our nursing scores, we look at both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we graded was long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in that area. This is a perfectly acceptable grade in this area. In determining our long-term care ratings, we assess the personal care offered to a nursing home's patients. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 94.91525 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This facility also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
