Registered Staff Hours
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 6.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to this nursing home's list of strengths, it also received an excellent nursing grade. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Our nursing score is largely tied to the nursing home's 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 nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections
Moving on to another of this facility's strengths, it also received a very impressive inspection score. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an impressive grade of B+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively insignificant. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the last area, this nursing home was awarded a decent long-term care grade. Although this isn't quite as elite as a few of its other category grades, this is truly nothing to be ashamed of. For patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 99.53704 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
