Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
The main reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. In fact, its inspection score was far superior to its overall score. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
Additionally, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B in our short-term care category. This is one of our higher scores. Short-term care grades are based on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-, which is a decent grade. Our nursing score consists of a handful of components, most of which are associated with nursing hours. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below average. Lastly, although this facility got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this subcategory.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the final category, this facility received a C in long-term care, which we consider to be an acceptable rating. Our long-term care grade focuses on a facility's assistance with daily living instead of the skilled therapy or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. One of the criteria we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
