Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite insignificant. While this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home was given its next highest category grade in the area of long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of C in this area, which is a decent grade. In calculating our long-term care grades, we scrutinize the personal care offered to a nursing home's residents. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 99.55947 percent of its patients, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. This facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Our short-term care grade is commonly used to judge a facility's performance with rehabilitation In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. With a score this poor for this category, we were not surprised to learn that this facility was below average in many staffing figures we looked at. The facility provided substantially fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
Nurse Quality
The final area we scored was nursing, where this facility was given a rock bottom grade in this category as well. It received a lowly F in this category, which is obviously somewhat alarming. Our nursing grade includes a handful of subcategories, most of which are associated with nursing hours. With just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, this facility's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This place fared well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
