To pair with its favorable overall grade, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating.

Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility was given dominant marks in the category of short-term care. As a result, it was given one of our highest scores in that category with a grade of A+. Our short-term care scores are thought to be more critical for those requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. We scrutinized the qualifications of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses were with patients, in computing our score in this area. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by having a system of moving a patient at least once a day.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we assessed is long-term care, in which this facility was given a grade of C. This actually proved to be this facility's worst area. This is still not a bad grade. Long-term care grades focus on a facility's assistance with daily living rather than the skilled therapy and healthcare services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated 85.454544 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which happens to be quite a few points below what we were hoping for. Nevertheless, this place keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
