Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection score. In fact, its inspection grade was far superior to its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we still had a generally positive view of this nursing home's recent inspections.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded an impressive score in our long-term care category. We awarded this facility a better than average grade of B in that category. Facilities that excel in this category typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 98.295456 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
Another concern is the F this facility was given in the area of short-term care. Our short-term care scores are crucial for people looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Based on its grade in this category, we weren't surprised to learn that this place is well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients based on the data we assessed. Honestly, this was what we expected here. The final measure we looked at in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. This was quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The final area we assessed is nursing. It received an abysmal F in this category, which is a bottom of the barrel grade. This is obviously a major concern. There are a host of subcategories within this area. Many of these data points reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. With a meager 0 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this facility's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below the national average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
