Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's better category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B. Facilities that do well in long-term care tend to provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 98.79245 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
The third highest category we awarded this facility in any category came in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a C. In our short-term care score, we strive to forge a sound measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 4.9 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we assessed is nursing. It received an abysmal F for this category, which is an abysmal score. This is clearly a significant disappointment. There are several factors within this grade. Most of the factors relate to levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. On top of receiving below average marks for total nursing hours, this place was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and found that this nursing home was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in this statistic.
