Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Our inspection scores account for several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this category tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor dings aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home received strong marks in the area of short-term care as well. As a result, it received one of our most elite scores in that category with a area of A-. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we analyze a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This score is typically a solid measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
The third category we looked at is long-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. For prospective patients looking for a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is an above average figure. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The last area we graded is nursing, where this nursing home was given a grade of B-. Even though this proved to be its worst category score, this is still nothing to be ashamed of. Nursing scores are tied to quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at several nursing quality measures. Although this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of these quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this subcategory. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning residents at least once a day.
