One of the reasons this ended up being a quality nursing home is that it received a very impressive inspection rating. In fact, inspections is its best category grade. In this area, we awarded this facility an A. Inspection ratings are based on many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category tend to have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.

One of the other reasons we rated this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. In fact, nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an A. Our nursing rating includes a handful of factors, however, the main consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Turning to an additional strength for this nursing home, we awarded them one of our more favorable grades in our short-term care category as well, with a grade of B+. In our short-term care score, we strive to forge a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

The final category we looked at proved to be this nursing home's poorest area. Nevertheless, even in its weakest link we still awarded it a respectable grade of B- in long-term care. Our long-term care scores are more critical for folks needing more conventional services related to activities of daily living. After considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were disappointed to learn that this nursing home vaccinated only 80.11364 percent of its residents against pneumonia. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
