Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall grade, we gave this nursing home a grade of A- for our inspections rating. This is far better than its overall score. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more impressive category grades was in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B. It actually fared better than most nursing homes in this category. Facilities that do well in long-term care tend to provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the senior population. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
An additional reason we rated this facility so highly is that it received an A+ nursing rating. This is as good as it gets in this category. Our nursing score includes several subcategories, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed is short-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
