Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this is a decent nursing home is that it received a very favorable inspection score. In this category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some can be relatively insignificant. 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.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's better category scores came in the category of short-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. Short-term care grades are typically employed to measure a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To offer highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we considered in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality
One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of C. The nursing grade analyzes many factors, however, the main one is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This figure is far below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics. While this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of these quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this subcategory. This is often a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by having a protocol of turning a resident more often.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed is long-term care. This facility was given a C for the category. Our long-term care grade focuses on a facility's personal care rather than the highly skilled nursing and medical services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. One of the data points we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 98.91305 percent of its residents. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
