This facility really excelled in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a score of A-. Only a select group of nursing homes performed more favorably in this area.

Facility Inspections
Adding yet another impressive category grade, we gave this nursing home an impressive grade of B+ for our inspections category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored was long-term care. We gave this nursing home a C in this area. Our long-term care scores are more important for people needing more traditional assistance associated with activities of daily living. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
