This nursing home received a quality overall grade as described above, but we especially want to emphasize its nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded it an A in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

This particular facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics. While this nursing home got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality measures. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it did very well in this area. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of moving residents at least once a day.

In forming our long-term care ratings, we assess the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We were a bit concerned this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 69.00369 percent of its patients. Fortunately, this place was able to limit hospitalizations.
