This facility also performed well in the area of inspections. It received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. It received one of our best grades in that area with an A. Few facilities with an overall grade in this range performed this well in multiple categories. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few relatively minor dings are not the end of the world.

This nursing home also was awarded a favorable short-term care score. In fact, we gave it an above average score of B+ in this category. Our short-term care ratings are presumably most important for folks requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the nursing home.

Although this was not as high as a few of its other grades, it is nevertheless not a bad grade. In computing our long-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's personal care services. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records.
