Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home really excelled in the category of short-term care. We gave it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. This salvaged its overall profile. In calculating these short-term care ratings, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 6.4 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
Facility Inspections
Inspections is another category where this facility excelled. In fact, we gave this facility an A- for our inspections category. This is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few minor dings aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the amount of time nurses are seeing patients and the skill levels of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we scored is long-term care. Sadly, it received an F for this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is clearly a major disappointment. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care grades. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the vaccine to 97.86477 percent of its residents, which is a very respectable figure. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
