Facility Inspections
The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with an A-. This is a much better score than the place's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was given a positive short-term care score. Indeed, we gave them a grade of B in that category, which is one of our more favorable scores. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third most favorable category was long-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. Our long-term care scores are essential for residents looking for non-healthcare services such as personal care. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. As it turns out, this nursing home vaccinated only 67.26457 percent of its residents, which is somewhat alarming. Nevertheless, this facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Nurse Quality
The final area we analyzed was nursing, ended up being this facility's weakest category. We gave this nursing home a D in this category. This was one of the few weak links on a very solid profile. When calculating our nursing ratings, we assess both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average facility. This could be a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are preventable with better nursing care. These metrics pulled down this facility's nursing rating quite a bit.
