Long-term Care Quality
This facility earned a strong overall score as mentioned above, but we wanted to point out its excellent long-term care score. We gave them a grade of A+ in this category. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are well cared for. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.02597 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Inspection grades are tied to pieces of information located in the a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this category tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. While this didn't quite match its scores in some of the categories discussed above, this is still a decent score. The nursing score is based on many components, but the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the last area, we gave this facility a grade of D for the area of short-term care. This was the facility's worst category grade. Of course, this score pulled down the facility's overall profile a bit. Short-term care ratings are meaningful for residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
