Facility Inspections
On top of having a decent overall score, we also wanted to point out that this place received favorable government inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our better scores in that area, with a B+. This is a much better grade than the nursing home's overall score. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. While this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more impressive category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B+. It actually performed better than most nursing homes in this category. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is much higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Lastly, although this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures.
