Long-term Care Quality
Although we didn't rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to note its relatively favorable long-term care score this year. We gave it a respectable grade of B in this category, which was much better than its overall grade. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care tend to be well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. This proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home an B-. Nursing scores are tied to quantity of nursing care available. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care offered.

Short-term Care Quality
The last area we looked at is short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's weakest category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in that category. In determining our short-term care ratings, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This rating is frequently a fair measure of a facility's rehabilitation. Given its grade in this category, we were not stunned to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of its number of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the metrics we looked at. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
