Nurse Quality
In addition to having a decent overall grade, we also wanted to point out that this facility received favorable nursing marks this year. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a B+. This proved to be the facility's top score. Nursing scores are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home's second best category is inspections. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next highest category ended up being its short-term care grade, where it received a B-. In the area of short-term care, we try to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its level of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The real question is whether this adversely impacted quality of care. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our final area, we awarded this nursing home a D in the area of long-term care. This is the facility's weakest category rating. In a long-term care environment, 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 residents. After we finished assessing the quantity of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 96.77419 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
