Facility Inspections
While we were not very complementary of this facility's overall score, it received a very impressive inspection report this year. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our highest scores in that category with an A-. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid nursing homes that have too many severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next highest category is its long-term care score, where it was awarded a grade of B-. For patients seeking a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 36.764706 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

With only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this place's nurse staffing levels were significantly below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we looked at was short-term care. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this category, which is a poor score. In computing our short-term care ratings, we size up a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This grade is considered to be a reliable measure of the facility's rehabilitation services. Not surprisingly, we found that this place offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
