Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that area, with an A. This is a notably better score than the facility's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Our nursing rating is primarily associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a low total compared with most other nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics. While this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this metric. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning a patient even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third best area turned out to be its short-term care grade, where it received a grade of C. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. The final measure we considered in this area is the number of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.3 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we scored was long-term care, proved to be this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in that area. For prospective patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 96.93095 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
