Facility Inspections
On top of performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its profile, this nursing home also received a score of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is an above average score in this category. Short-term care grades are often employed to judge a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To offer highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. Our nursing rating weighs quite a few components, but the main one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the fourth area, this nursing home was awarded a respectable long-term care score of C. Long-term care scores are important for individuals seeking personal care. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 94.73685 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
