Facility Inspections
On top of being a strong facility overall, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Few facilities fared better in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home performed well in the category of long-term care. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that area, which is one of our best grades. Facilities that receive this type of grade in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are kept in good health. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 99.15254 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly is often a life threatening health condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. While this didn't quite match its scores in some of the categories discussed above, this is still a decent score. Our nursing rating analyzes a handful of components, but the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. In fact, it performed well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care provided.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was short-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's worst category. Sadly, it received an F for this area, which is clearly somewhat concerning. With our short-term care assessment, we attempt to create a meaningful measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at a facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. The last item we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.2 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
