Facility Inspections
The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an excellent inspection grade. In fact, its inspection grade was far superior to its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave this facility a grade of A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite minor. This place received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this facility's more respectable category grades was in the category of long-term care. This turned out to be its second most favorable category. In that category, we awarded this facility a B-. Our long-term care grade focuses on a nursing home's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled therapy and medical services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
The third most favorable category we awarded this facility in any area came in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a C. Short-term care grades are critical for residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 4.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Nurse Quality
The last category we rated was nursing. We awarded this facility a grade of C in that category. Our nursing rating analyzes the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure as it is well below the national average. Lastly, we also factored a few quality-based metrics into our nursing ratings. This place was subpar in two of the major metrics we focus on, with below average scores for minimizing its patients' major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are often reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care available.
