Facility Inspections
While this nursing home received a decent overall score, its inspections rating is notably better than its overall grade. Due to a strong government inspection report this year, it earned one of our better scores in that category with a B. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 9 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of B- in this category. Nursing grades are primarily tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures. While this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this metric. This can be a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning residents at least once a day.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next most favorable category turned out to be short-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a B-. Short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. We were surprised to find that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The final measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we analyzed is long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a C in this category. Our long-term care scores are more critical for individuals requiring more conventional assistance related to activities of daily living. After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated 88.53211 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is several points below the national average. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
