Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received a very impressive inspection rating. Inspections is its best category. In this category, we gave it an A. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to its profile, this nursing home also earned a score of B for its long-term care rating. This is a well above average grade in this category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are kept in good health. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 86.73267 percent of its residents. This is a bit less than we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of moving patients at least once a day.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our last category, this nursing home received a decent short-term care score of C. Short-term care grades are generally used to grade a facility's performance with rehabilitation.
