Facility Inspections
This facility received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category typically have very few severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this facility's more favorable category grades came in the area of long-term care. This ended up being its second most respectable category. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Long-term care grades are based on a facility's amount of nursing care. This means a broad scope of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 80.04484 percent of its patients. This is pretty significantly below the national average. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
Unfortunately, this nursing home only earned a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which is not a very good score. In forming these short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. As you might expect, we found that this place provides substantially less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than a typical facility. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who ultimately returned home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The final area we analyzed is nursing. Sadly, it received a lowly F in this area, which is a poor grade. This is obviously a significant concern. Our nursing score is based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at a few quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place was above average in two of the areas we considered, with solid scores for minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
