Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections category. This score is much more impressive than the facility's overall grade. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 15 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. Nursing grades are largely tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a somewhat concerning figure which is well below average. Lastly, our nursing scores also consider quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses aids to assist its residents.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest category was its long-term care score, where it was given a grade of C. Long-term care grades are often used to score a facility's performance as a traditional nursing home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a rehabilitation facility. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we analyzed is short-term care. Sadly, it received an abysmal F in this category, which is a rock bottom score. Short-term care grades are generally used to assess a facility's rehabilitation services. To have highly rated rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must provide higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Considering its grade in this area, we were not surprised to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the measures we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected here. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. This wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most facilities, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
