Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We awarded this nursing home one of our better scores in the area of short-term care, where it received an impressive grade of A-. This is far better than the facility's overall score, which was certainly not elite. In calculating these short-term care grades, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to formulate a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we assessed in this category is the number of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
This facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an B+. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This place received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not something to panic about.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-, which is a decent grade. We analyzed the licensure of nurses employed by the facility, as well as the quantity of hours those nurses spent with patients, in computing our rating in this category. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, although this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed was long-term care. We awarded this nursing home a grade of C in this area. Our long-term care ratings are more meaningful for residents requiring more conventional assistance associated with personal care. Once we concluded our assessment of the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were optimistic to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 96.66667 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
