Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the category of inspections, where it received an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we had a generally positive view of this facility's recent inspections.
Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a middle of the pack score in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a B-. Our long-term care ratings are more critical for people in need of more traditional assistance related to personal care. On top of considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.044586 percent of its residents. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
Moving on to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing rating. We gave this facility an impressive grade of D. There are a number of subcategories included in this grade. Many of the subcategories are tied to staffing levels. This facility averaged a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This facility performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we looked at was short-term care. Sadly, it received an abysmal F in this category, which is a poor grade. This is clearly a major disappointment. Our short-term care grades are believed to be more meaningful for residents needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. With its abysmal grade in this area, we were not surprised to learn this nursing home provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.2 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.
