Facility Inspections
We would like to point out that this facility's inspection score exceeded its overall score. This facility earned a B in this area, which is one of our better grades. Inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically have very few severe deficiencies. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we rated this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an B-. We looked at the qualifications of nurses employed by the facility, as well as the quantity of hours the nurses were with residents, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a relatively low total compared with most other facilities. Finally, nursing scores also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this nursing home performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest area is short-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B-. In our short-term care grade, we endeavor to craft a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in that area. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. After we finished assessing the amount of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinates 95.39474 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
