Nurse Quality
We also wanted to note that this nursing home received an impressive grade of A for our nursing category. When determining a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the quantity of hours nurses commit to patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its first-rate assessment, this nursing home also was given an excellent short-term care score, with a score of A. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Facility Inspections
We awarded this nursing home an A for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
In our last area, we awarded this facility an A for its long-term care rating. This completed an elite profile. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are well cared for. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 98.27586 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly can be a dangerous health condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
