Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this facility an A- for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than its overall score. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite minor. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Short-term Care Quality
One of this nursing home's more favorable category scores was in the area of short-term care. This ended up being its second most respectable category. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Our short-term care grade is often employed to gauge a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to offer high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to feature higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.

Long-term Care Quality
The third highest category we gave this nursing home in any category came in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of C. Our long-term care grade assesses a nursing home's assistance with daily living instead of the skilled therapy and medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. Once we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated a relatively low 63 percent of its patients for pneumonia. On a more positive note, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
The final area we assessed is nursing, is this nursing home's least impressive category. We awarded this facility a D in this area. When calculating a facility's nursing grade, we consider the quantity of hours nurses are caring for patients as well as the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this facility also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are preventable with better nursing care. These statistics hurt this nursing home's nursing rating significantly.
