Registered Staff Hours
Long-term Care Quality
On top of performing well in its overall score, this facility earned even higher grades in long-term care. It earned one of our highest grades in that category with a grade of A+. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is much higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category grades, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Although this place had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. This facility didn't perform quite as well in this category as it did in some other categories. Nevertheless, this is still a respectable score. Our nursing score focuses on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day, which is a very low figure. Lastly, we also assessed several nursing quality measures. While this facility got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed well in this metric. This is often a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of moving residents at least once a day.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth area, this facility did not perform well. With a rock bottom grade of F in that category, this is notably this nursing home's worst category. In computing our short-term care scores, we size up a facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This rating is more often than not a meaningful measure of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home offered less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
