Facility Inspections
On top of earning a great overall score, this facility also performed well in inspections, which is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. We gave it an A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
On the list of its many high-end grades, this nursing home received a top-shelf short-term care grade. In fact, it received a grade of A in this area. Short-term care grades are generally used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of 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 all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community.

Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our fourth category, this facility received an extremely favorable long-term care score. Although this was not nearly as good as many of its other grades, this remains one of the stronger grades we offer.

Pneumonia is often a dangerous illness for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances.

It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
