Facility Inspections
To pair with its favorable overall score, we awarded this place an A+ for our inspections rating. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Among its many high-end grades, this nursing home was awarded an excellent long-term care grade. In fact, it received a score of A- in that area. For prospective patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 93.85965 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is a bit less than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of nursing care. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours those nurses spent with residents, in determining our score in this area. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of turning patients more frequently.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we scored is short-term care, in which this facility was awarded a B. Believe it or not, this proved to be this facility's least impressive area. A facility could be doing a lot worse when it's lowest score still beats out most facilities. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. We were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final item we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 5.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
