Facility Inspections
We would like to point out that this nursing home's inspection grade exceeded its overall grade. This facility earned a B+ in this area, which is a quality score. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we awarded this nursing home a B+ in our long-term care category. This is one of our more impressive scores. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is too frequently a dangerous ailment for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home doesn't take any chances. Lastly, this facility was 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
This facility received its third best category score in the area of short-term care. We gave this facility a C in this category, which is a decent score. In computing these short-term care ratings, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to formulate a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. It does not appear that this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we considered in this category is the number of residents that ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Moving on to the last category, this facility was awarded a grade of C in nursing, which is generally an acceptable rating. Our nursing rating considers a variety of subcategories. The most important factor is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, we look at quality-based metrics, such as the percent of residents who experienced pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these metrics are measures of the quality of nursing care.
