Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this facility really outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a grade of A+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also was awarded an impressive long-term care score. In fact, we awarded it a B+ in this area, which is one of our better. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure residents are well cared for. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 88.83495 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be a bit less than we anticipated but still a decent percentage. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. In determining a facility's nursing score, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are with residents and the level of licensure of those nurses. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This facility fared well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's least impressive area is short-term care, which is the last category we scored. We gave it an F in this category. Despite multiple decent scores in other categories, this score is nevertheless alarming so we felt obligated to make sure you are aware. With our short-term care assessment, we strive to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we look at a facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. It looks like this facility was below average in multiple staffing areas we assessed. It provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
