Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients.

When calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the number of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the levels of training of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these datapoints as reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed was short-term care, where this nursing home was given a grade of C in this category. Our short-term care scores are vital for people in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the measures we assessed. The real question is whether this also impacted quality of care. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 32.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. This figure was below average.

The last area we assessed was long-term care, which proved to be this facility's least impressive category. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this category. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 97.68786 percent of its residents, which is a very solid figure. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.86 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
