Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this ended up being a quality facility is that it received an impressive inspection grade. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category grade. In this category, we gave this facility a grade of A+. Our inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home was awarded a favorable short-term care score as well. We gave it one of our better scores in that area with a grade of B+. In computing our short-term care ratings, we scrutinize the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This category is considered to be a reliable assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 5.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded a strong long-term care score. In fact, we gave it an above average grade of B in this category. For residents looking for a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. One of the criteria we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 76.608185 percent of its patients. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Nurse Quality
The next category we scored was nursing, which is this nursing home's worst area. We gave this facility a D in that area. Of course, this grade hurt the nursing home's overall profile to some degree. We weighed the licensure of nurses at the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours those nurses spent with residents, in determining our grade in this category. This facility offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Unfortunately, this facility also did not perform as well as we hoped in some of the quality measures we assessed in this category.
