Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a strong facility is that it received an impressive inspection rating. Inspections turned out to be its best category. In that category, we awarded this facility an A+. Our inspection scores are tied to items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a score of A for our short-term care grade. Our short-term care grades are important for people looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more skilled nursing. This means a broad spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Many of these datapoints reflect staffing levels. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the quantity of hours of care provided.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we graded is long-term care, is this facility's worst category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this area. This really was one of the few dings on a very solid report card. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 98.58156 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
