Short-term Care Quality
In addition to earning a strong overall grade, this nursing home also received an elite short-term care grade. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that area, with an impressive grade of A. Our short-term care grades are presumably more meaningful for people requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Building on its impressive resume, this facility also excelled in nursing. In fact, we gave it an B+ for that category. Nursing grades are primarily associated with a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Inspection ratings are tied to several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we graded was this facility's weakest area. Nevertheless, even in its worst category we still gave it a decent grade of C in our long-term care category. In the category of long-term care, we assess the amount of care offered by a nursing home, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.11894 percent of its patients. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
