Facility Inspections
To go along with a favorable overall grade, we awarded this nursing home an A+ for our inspection category. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. It doesn't look like we have information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Nursing ratings are mostly tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day.

Long-term Care Quality
We also would like to alert you to the fact that this nursing home was given a superb score of A- in our long-term care category. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed was short-term care, where this facility received a grade of B-. This is this facility's least impressive category. This is still not a terrible score. Our short-term care scores are arguably most critical for individuals requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
