Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we gave this facility an A for its inspection grade. This grade is far better than the facility's overall grade. Inspection ratings are based on pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best category was long-term care. We awarded it a B- in this category. This is basically a slightly below average grade in this area. For residents seeking a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to just 87.6161 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

This facilities next most favorable category was short-term care. We gave it a grade of B- in this area. This is essentially a middle of the pack grade in this category. With our short-term care assessment, we try to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we look at a facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we looked at was nursing. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in our nursing category, rendering this its weakest category grade. The nursing score consists of many factors, many of which are tied to nursing hours. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below average. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing grades. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and major falls. This place had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average facility.
