Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place is a strong nursing home is that it received an impressive inspection rating. Inspections turned out to be its best category grade. In this area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite minor. This place was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few relatively minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a score of A- for our short-term care score. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be more meaningful for residents in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our next area, this facility received an acceptable long-term care score. Although this wasn't quite as good as several of its other category grades, this is still a middle of the pack score. Long-term care grades are based on a nursing home's amount of care. This means a vast spectrum of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. This facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
