Nurse Quality
In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in nursing, where it received an A. Few nursing homes fared better in this category. Our nursing grade is largely based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so well is that it received a very impressive short-term care score. Indeed, short-term care ended up being its second most impressive category grade. In that category, we gave this facility a score of A-. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. It doesn't appear that this nursing home provided data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections
Turning to another of this nursing home's strengths, it also earned a very impressive inspection rating. Inspections proved to be one of its best grades. In that area, we gave this facility an impressive grade of B+. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed is long-term care. In this area, we gave this facility a solid grade of C. This is this nursing home's least impressive area. Our long-term care ratings are more important for individuals in need of more traditional services related to personal care. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is a very solid total. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
