Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher scores in this category generally have few severe deficiencies. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few relatively minor dings aren't something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also excelled in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A-. Few nursing homes fared better in this area. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most meaningful for residents in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home provided information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 6.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality
The third most favorable category we awarded this nursing home in any area came in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a C. In the category of long-term care, we analyze the amount of services offered by a nursing home, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 88.37209 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the final category, this facility did not fare very well. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in nursing, this was its poorest category grade. We looked at the qualifications of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of time those nurses spent with residents, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home offered a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing scores. We looked at the percent of patients experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This nursing home had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home.
