Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A-. Few facilities performed better in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's long-term care score is one of its best features. The nursing home received a B- in this area. In crafting these long-term care scores, we analyze the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 92.38845 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is a bit less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of C. In calculating our nursing scores, we weigh both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, our nursing ratings also factor in quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its residents.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the last category, this facility did not fare well. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this is this nursing home's weakest area. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Given its score in this area, we were not surprised to discover that this nursing home is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected to find. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
