Facility Inspections
The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection grade. Its inspection grade was far better than its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave it a grade of A+. Inspection scores weigh several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this area typically have few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next most favorable category was long-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of C. Long-term care scores are based on a facility's amount of nursing services. This includes a broad scope of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 95.754715 percent of its patients. This place keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home only received a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which is well below average in this category. With our short-term care rating, we endeavor to craft a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Based on its grade in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the data we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected here. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest category was nursing, which is the final area we looked at. In this area, we gave this nursing home a D. When calculating our nursing ratings, we look at both nursing hours and the training levels of the nurses. This place offered just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This number is well below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these metrics to be indicators of the quality of nursing care.
