As a result, it received one of our best grades in that category with an A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

After we finished assessing the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
The final category we graded is nursing, in which this facility received a poor score here also. Sadly, it received an F for this area, which is obviously a major concern. In computing a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the quantity of hours nurses are with residents and the level of skill of the nurses.
