You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 15 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.

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, we also would like to note that this facility was awarded impressive long-term care marks in this assessment.

When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to live on a permanent basis. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. This is a great way to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Switching gears to our fourth category, this nursing home was awarded a decent short-term care score of C. In determining our short-term care grades, we size up the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other licensed professionals. This category is typically a meaningful assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Unfortunately, we were not able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this place. The final metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
