Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall score, we gave this nursing home an A- for its inspection grade. This grade is far better than the facility's overall grade. Inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's short-term care grade turns out to be one of its better features. The facility was awarded a grade of B- in this area. In the category of short-term care, we try to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The tricky part is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.

This means a vast range of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated a relatively low 85.68156 percent of its patients. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The next area we scored was nursing, turned out to be this facility's weakest area. We gave this facility a D in that area. Our nursing score features several factors. The most heavily weighted variable is the number of hours nurses spent with residents. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
