Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this facility also excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A+. Few facilities performed better in this area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively insignificant. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Nurse Quality
In addition, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B in our nursing category. This is one of our better grades. Our nursing score is mostly based on the facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by having a policy of moving patients even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's third best category ended up being its short-term care grade, where it was given a C. In calculating these short-term care grades, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The final metric we considered in this area is the number of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's least impressive category is long-term care, which is the final area we assessed. In this area, we gave this nursing home a grade of just D. When facilities receive this type of grade in this category it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may mean that the facility is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 89.57529 percent of its residents. This is pretty significantly less than what we expected. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
