In that area, we awarded this facility an B.

In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Turning our final category, inspections proved to be this nursing home's weakest link. It received a grade of C in this category. Inspection scores relate to a facility's government inspections. Our inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were in categories G through L. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to present an imminent threat to resident safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.
