Short-term Care Quality
To go along with its strong overall grade, we gave this nursing home an impressive grade of A for our short-term care grade. In determining our short-term care grades, we analyze a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This area is considered to be a fair measure of a facility's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 6.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
Turning to another one of this nursing home's strengths, it also received a very impressive inspection grade. Inspections proved to be one of its best category grades. We gave this nursing home an B+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. While this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few relatively minor dings are not the end of the world.

We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the next category, this nursing home really didn't fare well. With a very poor grade of F in this area, this was notably this facility's poorest area. Facilities that do not fare well in long-term care often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine personal care we looked at. After assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated only 76.06383 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this facility was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
