Facility Inspections
In addition to being a great facility overall, it also earned A+ government inspections recently. Its inspections were nearly perfect. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite minor. While this facility had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also would like to alert you to the fact that this facility was given a dominant score of A in our long-term care area. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 54.700855 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be a bit below what we anticipated but still a decent percentage. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable short-term care scores this year. Indeed, we gave them one of our more favorable scores in that area, with a grade of B. Short-term care ratings are critical for patients looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. The last measure we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
The last area we looked at was nursing. This nursing home was given an impressive nursing rating this year, with a grade of B. Even though this is not nearly as elite as several of its other category grades, this is still one of the more impressive scores in that area. In determining our nursing scores, we look at both staffing levels and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 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 place performed better than average in this area. This is often a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
