Short-term Care Quality
One of the reasons this place received a great overall grade is that it received an A+ in short-term care. This is simply as good as it gets in this area. In our short-term care assessment, we strive to craft a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze the facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

This first-rate facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Nursing scores are based largely on quality and quantity of nursing care. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area.

Facility Inspections
Another impressive feature of this facility is its inspection grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we analyzed turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its worst category we still awarded it a decent grade of B- for our long-term care category. Our long-term care grades are more critical for patients needing more traditional assistance related to personal care. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated 63.97059 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is several points below what we expected. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
