Facility Inspections
To go along with its decent overall score, we gave this facility a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. Our inspection grades weigh several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this area typically have few of these 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
Additionally, we gave this nursing home a B+ in our long-term care category. This happens to be one of our better grades. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents out of the hospital. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this facility only received a D for its short-term care rating, which is not an impressive grade. Short-term care ratings are important for individuals looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes a vast range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We found that this nursing home was subpar in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the data we considered. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we analyzed is nursing. We gave this facility a D in our nursing category, leaving this as the facility's worst area. Our nursing rating considers many data points. The most important variable is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this place's nurse staffing levels were significantly below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
