Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Additionally, we also would like to point out that this facility received positive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our better grades in that area, with a B+. This turned out to be the facility's second highest grade. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 89.44365 percent of its patients. This is slightly lower than we anticipated but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least 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 number.

The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to the last category, this nursing home really did not perform very well. With an abysmal grade of F in nursing, this is this nursing home's poorest category. The nursing score assesses quite a few data points, however, the paramount one is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores.
