Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. In fact, its inspection score was far superior to its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A+. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's higher category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide patients with better supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. Our nursing grade analyzes the facility's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This place provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the number of hours of care provided.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the next area, this nursing home didn't perform very well. With a rock bottom grade of F in short-term care, this was its poorest category grade. With our short-term care category, we try to forge a valuable gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. It appears that this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the staffing figures we looked at. The final statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar metrics was damning for this nursing home's short-term care score.
