Facility Inspections
To pair with its strong overall score, we gave this place a grade of A for our inspections rating. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports.

Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was given strong marks in the area of long-term care as well. Consequently, we awarded it one of our best scores in that area with a area of A-.

After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 91.97861 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is somewhat below what we were hoping for but still a decent figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home was awarded its third best category score in the category of short-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in this area, which is a reasonably acceptable score. Our short-term care ratings are presumably most critical for those requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this place. The last item we looked at in this category is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
The last category we rated was nursing. In this category, we awarded this facility a decent grade of B-. This actually ended up being this nursing home's least impressive category. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of time the nurses worked with residents, in calculating our grade in this category. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, our nursing scores also factor in some quality-focused measures. We like to look at the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these data points are decent measures of the quality of nursing care, since superior care can reduce these issues.
