Nurse Quality
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received a much better grade for nursing than it received overall. In fact, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. The nursing score features a number of subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second highest area ended up being its short-term care score, where it received a B-. In forming our short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to create a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. The last item we considered in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's patients returned home. This figure was below average.

Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a middle of the pack grade in the area of long-term care, with a grade of B-. With our long-term care rating, we assess the volume of services provided by a facility, as well as a handful of qualitative measures. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Facility Inspections
Turning the last category of government inspections, we gave this nursing home a score of D for our inspection category. This proved to be this nursing home's worst grade. We take a poor score in this category very seriously. Inspection grades factor in many items on the nursing home's recent inspection reports. If you find too many deficiencies on the inspection reports, this is generally a bad sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This facility was assessed 10 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only favorable thing we found is that none of its deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility also received 25 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
