Long-term Care Quality
On top of receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home performed well in our long-term care category. We gave it an impressive grade of A- for that category. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 84.0625 percent of its patients. This is a bit lower than we were hoping for. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, at least this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
This facility has received near flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A- in this category. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last category we graded, this facility was awarded an impressive grade grade of B+ in our short-term care category. With this grade, the nursing home topped off a very impressive report card. Our short-term care scores are believed to be most meaningful for those needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. It does not appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
