Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it did receive a very good grade in the category of inspections. We awarded it a B+ for that area, which is one of our better scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. This nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
We also ended up giving this facility a fairly respectable grade in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of C. Our nursing grade is mostly based on a facility's nurse staffing. This facility averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. It scored well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's next best area turned out to be its long-term care score, where it was given a grade of C. In crafting our long-term care scores, we look at the nursing home's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. One of the factors we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 97.28682 percent of its residents. This place was able to keep its residents 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
The last area we rated is short-term care, ended up being this facility's least impressive category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in that category. In the category of short-term care, we seek to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Based on its weak score in this category, we weren't shocked to find this place provided significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the number of residents that eventually returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
