Grade: A-plus
In addition to being a first rate facility overall, this nursing home also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received an A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. When computing our nursing grades, we look at both staffing levels and the training levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 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. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Adding to its high-end resume, this nursing home also was given a dominant short-term care score, with a grade of A. Short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy.

However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from this facility.

Facility Inspections
Grade: A-minus
Racking up yet another strong category grade, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A-. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Grade: B-minus
The final area we graded is this facility's poorest category. However, even in its weakest link we still awarded it a respectable grade of B- in long-term care. In calculating our long-term care ratings, we look at the facility's personal care services. After we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. This place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
