Nurse Quality
To pair with its strong overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A- for our nursing score. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its profile, this nursing home also received a grade of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is a well above average grade in this category. Short-term care grades are critical for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires more skilled nursing services. This includes a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category grades, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B+ for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This facility received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to be an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies are not something to panic about.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we rated was long-term care, turned out to be this facility's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this category. This really was one of the couple of dings on a very solid report card. For patients in need of a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.8189 percent of its patients, which is an above average figure. Surprisingly, this nursing home also keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
