Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also earned excellent government inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our best grades in that area, with an impressive grade of A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are relatively insignificant. This place was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

The next area we analyzed is short-term care. This nursing home was awarded an above average short-term care rating in our assessment, with a grade of C. Although this is not quite as good as some of its other category grades, this remains a decent grade in that category. Short-term care grades are commonly used to measure a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 4.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.
