Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility excelled in our nursing rating. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our nursing rating is largely associated with the nursing home's nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a protocol of moving a resident more frequently.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received an A+ for its short-term care score. Our short-term care scores are arguably most meaningful for individuals requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections
Another strong feature for this nursing home is that it excelled in inspections, with a B in that category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively insignificant. This nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies an immediate risk to resident safety or health. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we scored was long-term care, which was this nursing home's least impressive area. We awarded this facility a grade of D in that category. However, we wouldn't assess this nursing home solely on one weak category, as it earned multiple very strong grades in other areas. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 98.9011 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is more than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
