Facility Inspections
Grade: A-plus
While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, 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 highest scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite minor. While this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Grade: B-plus
We also gave this facility an impressive grade in long-term care. This facility earned a B+ in this category, which turns out to be one of our more favorable scores. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 97.08879 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is far higher than the majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Rehabilitation generally mandates additional skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We were not able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this nursing home. The final metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 5.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Grade: F
Moving on to our final category, this nursing home did not fare well. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in nursing, this was this nursing home's weakest category. There are a variety of criteria within this grade. Many of the factors are tied to the quantity of nurse staffing. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were far below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This facility fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
