These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to create an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A couple relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.

Grade: A-minus

Contributing to this nursing home's list of accomplishments, it also was given a superb short-term care grade. We gave them a strong grade of A- in this area. Short-term care ratings are based on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a wide range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. It does not appear that this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. In determining a nursing home's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents and the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving a resident more often.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final area we rated proved to be this nursing home's weakest category. However, even in its worst category we still awarded it an acceptable grade of B- in our long-term care category. Our long-term care grade focuses on a facility's personal care rather than the skilled therapy or medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
