Facility Inspections
The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection score. Its inspection grade was far superior to its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave it an A+. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also fared well in the area of long-term care. Indeed, we awarded it a score of A- for that category, which happens to be one of our best grades. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is usually a good sign for resident care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 99.53488 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the category of short-term care, this nursing home received a grade of just D in that category. Short-term care grades are commonly used to grade a facility's rehabilitation services To have highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must have higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The final area we rated is nursing. It received a lowly F for this category, which is a very poor score. This is certainly a major disappointment. Our nursing score consists of a handful of data points, but the main one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This place provided a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is not a very impressive figure. To pair with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility.
