Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place really excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Few facilities performed better in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. This facility was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a middle of the road grade in the area of short-term care, where it received a B-. Short-term care grades are often used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality
The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. Our nursing score assesses the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we graded was long-term care, turned out to be this facility's worst area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that area. This really was one of the few dings in a very solid profile. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. As it turns out, this facility provided the vaccine to only 84.75992 percent of its patients, which is a bit of a concern. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
