Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a strong overall grade as described above, but we especially wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We gave it an A- in this area. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. While this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple relatively minor dings aren't something to panic about.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was awarded a favorable long-term care grade as well. We awarded it one of our better grades in that category with a grade of B. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 99.6875 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a proven method to minimize negative health outcomes for the elderly population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
The final category we analyzed was nursing. We awarded this facility a B- in this area. The nursing rating includes several subcategories, however, the paramount one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This place provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure as it is well below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is just as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.
