On top of receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home performed well in our short-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. In the area of short-term care, we seek to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

This facility also excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we gave it an A- for that category. Our inspection ratings account for several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category generally have few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report, which is still very impressive. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

Another strong feature for this facility is that it received an impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. In determining our nursing ratings, we factor in both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

The last area we rated is long-term care. We gave this nursing home a decent score in that category, with a grade of B-. Although this wasn't as favorable as many of this nursing home's other scores, it is still not a terrible score. For patients looking for a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 95.7162 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is more than most nursing homes. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
