Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that area, with an A. This is a notably better score than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded a favorable score in our short-term care category. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B in that category. In determining our short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's third best category turned out to be long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a B-. If you are seeking anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 91.46919 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is slightly below what we were hoping for but still a respectable figure. Nevertheless, this place keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The next category we assessed was nursing. We awarded this facility a C in that category. The nursing grade is based on numerous data points. The most important variable is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, our nursing scores also consider some quality-focused metrics. We look at the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are measures of the quality of nursing care, since superior care tends to reduce these issues.
