Facility Inspections
The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an excellent inspection score. In fact, its inspection score was far superior to its overall score. In the inspections category, we gave this facility an A-. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. We were not able to locate information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Without having access to the deficiency data for this nursing home, it is challenging to fully grade it in this category.
Nurse Quality
The second highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is not an impressive total. Lastly, although this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it did very well in this subcategory.

Long-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of C. Long-term care grades are commonly used to gauge a nursing home's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a skilled nursing facility. After considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 94.19355 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at was short-term care, turned out to be this facility's worst area. We gave this facility a grade of D in this category. Short-term care ratings are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. With a grade of this caliber in this category, we were not stunned to discover this facility was well below average in many staffing areas we assess. The nursing home supplied substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.7 percent of its patients returning home.
