Registered Staff Hours
Long-term Care Quality
This facility earned a long-term care rating which is stronger than its overall score. We gave this nursing home a B+ in this area. This boosted its overall profile. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in long-term care tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are kept in good health. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.6337 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Facility Inspections
It should also be noted that this facility's inspection score was strong as well. In fact, we awarded it a B for inspections, which is one of our better grades. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home's third highest score was short-term care. However, with a D in this category, it still performed relatively badly. Our short-term care ratings are likely most important for individuals in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Considering its weak score in this category, we weren't shocked to discover that this nursing home provides far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we rated was nursing, which was this nursing home's worst category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this category. The nursing score includes a number of subcategories. The most heavily weighted variable is the amount of time nurses spent with residents. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. Lastly, we also looked at some quality-based metrics in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home was above average in two of the major data points we considered, with good scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
