Facility Inspections
Grade: A
In addition to receiving a great overall score, this nursing home performed even better in the area of inspections which is associated with the nursing home's recent government inspections. In fact, we gave it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest grades. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few relatively minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
Grade: B
Adding to its strong performance in other areas, we gave this nursing home a grade of B for nursing. Nursing scores are primarily based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility California in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning residents more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality
Grade: B-minus
The third category we graded was long-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a decent grade of B-. Long-term care scores are important for people in need of personal care. Once we assessed the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This place also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: B-minus
The next area we assessed is short-term care. We awarded it a B- in this category. This is a fair grade in this category. In our short-term care grade, we try to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. It does not look like this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 4.4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually well below the national average.
