Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home fared well in the area of long-term care, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. If not for this grade, this nursing home's overall score would have been lower. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to be well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home also performed well in inspections. It received one of our best scores in that area with an A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, it also earned an elite nursing score. In fact, we gave this facility an D. When calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the amount of time nurses spend with patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This statistic is well below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we scored is short-term care, which was this facility's least impressive area. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this category, which is obviously concerning. Short-term care grades are critical for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. It looks like this nursing home was subpar in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the staffing figures we looked at. The last measure we looked at in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.2 percent of its patients returning home. This was well below the national average.
