Facility Inspections
Another impressive feature of this nursing home is its inspection rating. In that category, we gave this facility an A-. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

The last category we graded is long-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a decent grade of C. This turned out to be this facility's weakest category. Long-term care ratings are based on a facility's volume of nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of personal care services, ranging from help with activities of daily living to routine medical services. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 98.68996 percent of its patients, which is a very solid datapoint. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations.
