Short-term Care Quality
One of the reasons this proved to be a quality nursing home is that it received a very impressive short-term care grade. Short-term care turned out to be its best category. In that area, we awarded this nursing home an impressive grade of A. Our short-term care grade is generally used to gauge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To have highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A-. Our inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This indicates that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Nurse Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B. In determining a facility's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses are with patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 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 typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we assessed was this facility's worst category. Nevertheless, even in its weakest link we still gave it an acceptable grade of B- for our long-term care category. In determining our long-term care ratings, we size up the personal care received by the nursing home's patients. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to find that this nursing home vaccinated 95.51282 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
