Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a great overall score, this facility performed even better in our inspections category which is based on the facility's recent inspections. We gave it an A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Our inspection ratings account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category usually have few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was given a strong long-term care score as well. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that category with a grade of B+. For residents looking for a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. Once we assessed the volume of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 86.85446 percent of its residents for pneumonia. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, we were pleased to find nursing home 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
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. This facility didn't perform quite as well in this category as it did in some other categories. Nevertheless, this is still a respectable score. Our nursing grade weighs a handful of factors, many of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a relatively low total compared to most facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it performed well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care offered.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's weakest area is short-term care, which is the last area we looked at. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this area. Even with multiple impressive scores in other areas, this grade is nevertheless somewhat concerning so we wanted to point it out. Our short-term care scores are important for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we learned that this facility provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most other facilities. The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this nursing home's short-term care score.
