Our inspection ratings account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category typically have few severe deficiencies.

Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Vaccination is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary hospitalizations for the senior population. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations.

Grade: A-minus

The last area we analyzed was nursing, where this facility was given a grade of A-. This rounded out a very strong profile. Not many facilities received an A- or better in each of our categories. Our nursing score assesses quite a few data points, however, the main one is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these metrics as predictive indicators of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
