Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores are tied to many items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's higher category scores was in the area of short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a B. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the area of long-term care, this facility was given a grade of just D in this area. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.4709 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
The last category we graded was nursing. Sadly, it received a lowly F for this area, which is a poor score. This is clearly a significant concern. In determining a facility's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.
