One of the reasons this proved to be a quality nursing home is that it received a very impressive short-term care score. In fact, short-term care turned out to be its best category. In that area, we awarded this facility an A-. Short-term care scores are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Adding to this nursing home's list of strengths, it also received an excellent nursing grade. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category.

Facility Inspections
Turning to another of this nursing home's strengths, it also received a very impressive inspection score. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we scored is long-term care. This facility was given a very good long-term care rating in our assessment, with a B. This facility really did not have any weak links. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in long-term care it is usually a good sign for patient care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
