Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility earned a far better grade for short-term care than its overall score. It received one of our highest scores in that category with an A-. Short-term care grades are crucial for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that category, which is one of our better scores. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses at the facility, in addition to the number of hours the nurses worked with patients, in computing our grade in this category. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a good score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we graded is long-term care. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is a rock bottom grade. This is clearly a major disappointment. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in this category likely don't provide the kind of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities offer. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 69.03766 percent of its patients. This is many points below what we expected. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
