Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this facility really outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best scores in this category with an A-. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Nurse Quality
This facility also excelled in nursing, where it earned a grade of B. Our nursing grade is largely associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.3 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 place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality
The third highest category we awarded this facility in any area came in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 3.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we scored is long-term care, is this facility's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in that category. This really is one of the few weak points of a quality report card. For prospective patients in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is better than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
