Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our best scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite minor. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home was awarded its next most favorable category grade in the category of long-term care. We gave this nursing home a C in this category, which is a decent score. For residents seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We discovered that this facility gave the vaccine to a relatively low 68.28194 percent of its patients, which is somewhat concerning. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
Another unfortunate development is the F this nursing home was given in the category of short-term care. In crafting these short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Not surprisingly, we learned that this facility offers significantly less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical nursing home. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.8 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
The last category we analyzed is nursing. This nursing home was given a very poor grade of F in this area. There are a number of data points within this grade. Many of the criteria relate to nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
