Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a quality overall score as described above, but we especially would like to emphasize its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave it an A- in this area. Inspection scores weigh several 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 higher scores in this area tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. This place was hit with 9 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A few relatively minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing grade is mostly tied to the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next best area is long-term care. We gave it a grade of B- in this category. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this area. In the area of long-term care, we analyze the quantity of services provided by a facility, as opposed to more medically-intensive services. One of the statistics we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Lastly, this facility was also 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
Switching gears to the next category, this facility was given a B- for short-term care, which is generally an acceptable rating. In the category of short-term care, we seek to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this area is the number of residents that eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.
