Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we gave this nursing home an A for its inspection grade. This is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection scores are tied to several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also would like to note that this nursing home received a strong long-term care grade. In fact, we gave it one of our most favorable grades in that area with a score of A-. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 96.65272 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia can be a dangerous condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Not surprisingly, we discovered that this place provides substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical nursing home. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 4.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Despite several acceptable grades in other categories, this grade is still concerning so we would like to to point it out. There are a number of criteria included in this grade. Many of the data points are tied to the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This facility fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
