Facility Inspections
This nursing home's overall score was bolstered by the fact that it has earned favorable health inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better scores in this area, with a grade of B+. This is a much better grade than the nursing home's overall score. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. While this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a solid grade in the category of short-term care, where it received a grade of B-. In our short-term care assessment, we seek to create a valuable barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess a nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The real question is whether this also impacted quality of care. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of C. There are many factors within this grade. Most of the factors are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is far below average. Finally, while this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in some of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this subcategory.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's worst category was long-term care, which is the last area we looked at. For this area, we gave this facility a grade of just D. If you are seeking services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 96.80851 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is better than most nursing homes. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
