Facility Inspections
Although we didn't grade this nursing home favorably overall, we did give it an excellent score in the area of inspections, where it received an A-. Arguably the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. It is generally best to avoid nursing homes that had a long list of severe deficiencies. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. Not having any deficiencies proved to be this facility's greatest strength.
Short-term Care Quality
This facilities second best area is short-term care. We gave it a C in this category. This is basically a middle of the pack grade in this area. In the category of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. Nursing ratings are based in large part on quality and quantity of nursing care. This particular facility offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This statistic is quite a bit below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our final area, this facility really did not perform well in this category either. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this is just about as bad as it gets. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility 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. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
