Long-term Care Quality
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our long-term care grade. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 98.11321 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this nursing home excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite insignificant. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable short-term care grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our more favorable scores in that category, with a score of B+. Our short-term care grade is typically used to grade a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation In order to offer quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The last area we looked at was nursing. We awarded this nursing home an acceptable score in that area, with a C. Although this isn't as favorable as many of its other grades, it is nevertheless not a poor grade. Our nursing grade consists of quite a few factors, but the paramount consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
