Nurse Quality
On top of earning a great overall score, this nursing home really excelled in the area of nursing, where it received an A-. In calculating a facility's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses are with residents and the level of licensure of those nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a protocol of turning patients more often.
Facility Inspections
We also want to emphasize this facility's nearly flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of B+ in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This facility was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to patient safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality
The next most favorable area we gave this facility in any area came in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-. With our short-term care rating, we seek to create a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze the nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 3.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we looked at was long-term care. We awarded it a C in that area. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. In determining our long-term care ratings, we look at the personal care received by the facility's patients. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 90.983604 percent of its patients, which is a bit lower than we anticipated. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
