Our nursing grade analyzes several components, however, the primary one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B in our long-term care category. This is one of our higher grades. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care scores. One of the factors we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 44.594597 percent of its residents. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Facility Inspections
We also awarded this nursing home a grade of B- for our inspections rating. This is a very respectable nursing score. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This place was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we looked at is short-term care. This nursing home was given a grade of C for the category. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. It doesn't look like this facility submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.9 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
