Once we assessed the volume of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 99.41521 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is too frequently a life threatening condition for nursing home patients so we like it when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

To complement its strong performance in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our short-term care rating.

Facility Inspections
Another quality feature of this facility is its inspection rating. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies an immediate risk to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
The last category we scored is nursing, where this nursing home was awarded a B+. This finished off a very favorable profile. Only a select few facilities earned a B+ or higher in every single category. The nursing rating analyzes quite a few factors, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls.
