Long-term Care Quality
In addition to being a quality facility overall, this nursing home really fared well in our long-term care category, where it received an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 97.38563 percent of its patients. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the elderly population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive profile, this nursing home also performed at a high level in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our highest grades in that category with an A-. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third best category came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B-. With our short-term care category, we seek to create a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze a nursing home's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. It doesn't look like this facility submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below average.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to our final area, we gave this facility a grade of D for the area of nursing. This is the facility's least impressive category score. Sadly, this category hurt the facility's overall grade a bit. Our nursing grade is based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is well below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
