Facility Inspections
Although we didn't rate this nursing home favorably overall, we actually gave it an excellent grade in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid facilities with a list of severe deficiencies flagged. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. The lack of deficiencies proved to be this place's greatest strength.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best category is its long-term care score, where it was awarded a grade of C. In determining our long-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the area of short-term care, this facility received just a D in this area. Our short-term care scores are likely more critical for patients needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually utilizes additional skilled nursing. This includes not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Based on its score in this category, we were not surprised to find that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the data we looked at. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The last area we looked at is nursing, was this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this facility a grade of D in this category. Our nursing grade is largely associated with the nursing home's level 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 its below average nursing hours, this place also received poor scores in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We found that more of this place's patients sustained falls which led to major injury. We believe that many falls could likely be prevented with better nursing care. This metric contributed to this nursing home receiving a poor nursing rating.
