Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's more impressive category grades came in the category of short-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B. Short-term care grades are meaningful for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a broad scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality
This facilities third most favorable area is long-term care. We awarded it a B- in this category. This is essentially a middle of the road score in this area. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. After we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to discover that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This place keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The next category we assessed was nursing. We gave this facility a D for our nursing category, making this its worst grade. Nursing scores are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is well below average. On top of its below average nursing hours, this facility earned poor scores in several of the quality-based metrics we looked at in determining our nursing grades. We found that a higher percentage of this nursing home's patients experienced falls which led to serious injury. We believe that many falls could likely be prevented with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this nursing home receiving a poor nursing rating.
