Facility Inspections
The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an A+. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are relatively insignificant. This nursing home received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
The second most favorable area we awarded this nursing home in any category came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of C. Long-term care ratings are vital for patients seeking personal care. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.47561 percent of its residents, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next highest category ended up being short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of C. In crafting these short-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. We found that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. The facility supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
Moving on to the final area, we gave this facility a D for our nursing category. This is the facility's worst category grade. Our nursing score is based on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of skill of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This facility offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This nursing home also had abysmal marks in some of the quality-based metrics to pair with its weak nursing hour totals. We looked at the percent of patients suffering pressure ulcers and we were very disappointed. This nursing home was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in this area.
