The nursing category analyzes several components, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this nursing home's better category scores came in the area of long-term care. This turned out to be its second best category. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. In determining these long-term care grades, we look at the facility's personal care services. One of the factors we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 84.90566 percent of its residents. Fortunately, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a respectable score in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well below average.
Facility Inspections
The final category we looked at is inspections. Inspection grades are based on a nursing home's recent government inspections. This facility received a score of C in this category. We would argue that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home had 4 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This tells you CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to present an imminent risk to resident safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
