Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we gave this facility an A for its inspection grade. This score is far better than the facility's overall score. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's second highest category ended up being long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B-. For prospective patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are an important measure. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. As it turns out, this nursing home provided the vaccine to just 60 percent of its residents, which is well below average. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
The next best category we gave this facility in any area came in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a grade of C. Our short-term care grade is typically employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation In order to have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely affect the quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we analyzed was nursing, which was this facility's worst category. It received an abysmal F in this area, which is obviously very concerning. In determining our nursing grades, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of the nurses. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This number is far below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This facility performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
