Facility Inspections
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this facility performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A+. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility is also above average in the category of long-term care, where it received a grade of B+. It performed better than most nursing homes in this category. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are kept in good health. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 99.18699 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a middle of the pack grade in the category of short-term care, with a B-. Short-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. It does not appear that this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final metric we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 4.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the next category, this nursing home was given a C for nursing, which we consider to be an acceptable score. Nursing scores are based largely on quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a low total compared to most other nursing homes. Finally, we look at quality-based statistics, such as the percent of patients who suffered pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are measures of the quality of nursing care.
