Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
In addition to earning a strong overall score, this facility fared well in short-term care. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our best grades. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most meaningful for patients in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. In fact, nursing turned out to be its second best category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility an B+. In computing a nursing home's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections
Another area of strength for this facility is in inspections. Inspections proved to be one of its best categories. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B. Inspection scores weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area generally have few of these severe deficiencies. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A few relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily something to panic about.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we rated is long-term care. We awarded this facility a grade of B- in that area. Our long-term care grades are vital for prospective residents in need of non-healthcare services such as personal care. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. This facility also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
