Facility Inspections
On top of receiving a great overall score, this facility also received top notch health inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our best grades in this category, with an A. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received a favorable long-term care grade. Indeed, we gave it an above average score of B+ in this category. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
This facility is also strong in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B. It outperformed most nursing homes in this category. In calculating our nursing grades, we look at both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The last category we scored was short-term care. We awarded this facility a D for the area of short-term care, making this the nursing home's worst category grade. In determining these short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. We found that this place was subpar in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the data we considered. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
