Facility Inspections
On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this facility also earned top notch health inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher grades in that area, with an A. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a grade of A- for our long-term care score. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. Once we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 99.46809 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia can be a life or death health condition for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

The final item we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Turning to our last area, this facility was awarded an acceptable nursing score. Even though this isn't as strong as several of its other grades, this is truly not a terrible score.

This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also baked some quality measures into our nursing ratings.

These areas are often decent indicators of the quality of nursing care provided.
