Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall score, we awarded this facility a grade of A+ for its inspection grade. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we also wanted to note that this nursing home was awarded impressive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our higher grades in this category, with a B+. This turned out to be the nursing home's second highest grade. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 80.83253 percent of its residents. This is slightly below what we expected but still a decent figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Another concern is the F this facility received in the category of short-term care. In our short-term care grade, we endeavor to create a meaningful measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we look at the nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Given its grade in this area, we were not stunned to find that this place was well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the measures we looked at. Frankly, this was about what we expected here. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we assessed was nursing, which was this facility's worst area. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this category, which is obviously concerning. Our nursing score focuses on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This place provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
