Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its excellent government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A- in this category. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to this nursing home's list of strengths, it also received an excellent nursing grade. We gave them an impressive grade of B- in this area. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This facility averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, which is not an impressive total. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures. While this nursing home got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of these quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this metric. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by having a policy of turning a patient more often.

Short-term Care Quality
The third category we assessed was short-term care, where this facility was given a grade of C in this category. In crafting our short-term care grades, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to devise a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. The facility provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our next category, we gave this facility a grade of D for long-term care. This is the facility's least impressive category rating. When facilities receive this type of score in long-term care it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We discovered that this facility administered the vaccine to just 62.765957 percent of its residents, which is well below average. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
