Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's more favorable category scores came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. In the area of short-term care, we try to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients who returned home from the nursing home. We found that 4.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

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-. There are numerous factors within this grade. Most of these datapoints relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This facility averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is well below average. Finally, although this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this subcategory.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our fourth category, this facility did not perform very well. With an abysmal grade of F in long-term care, this is its poorest category grade. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes provide. Once we assessed the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility vaccinated a relatively low 69.291336 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
