Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless inspection reports in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically have very few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's higher category grades came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a B. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 95.744675 percent of its patients. This is a proven method to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. The nursing score analyzes quite a few factors, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed is short-term care, which is this nursing home's weakest area. We gave this facility a D in this category. Of course, this grade hurt the nursing home's overall grade to some degree. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature higher levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. It appears that this facility was below average in two of the key staffing metrics we focus on. It offered fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
