Facility Inspections
On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also earned first-rate government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better scores in this category, with a grade of A-. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple relatively minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's above average category scores came in the area of short-term care. We gave them one of our higher scores in that area, with a grade of B+. In forming these short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Switching gears to our last category, this facility received a grade of B- for long-term care, which we consider to be an acceptable grade. In determining our long-term care scores, we quantify the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home gave the vaccine to only 85.65574 percent of its residents, which is several points lower than we expected. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
