Facility Inspections
While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Nurse Quality
The second highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. Our nursing grade is largely associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This figure is far below average. Lastly, although this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this statistic.

Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a respectable score in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a C. Our long-term care grade assesses a facility's assistance with daily living instead of the highly skilled nursing and medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this facility gave the vaccine to only 85.02722 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed was short-term care, which proved to be this facility's worst category. It received an abysmal F for this area, which is clearly very concerning. Our short-term care scores are based on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Based on its abysmal grade in this category, we were not stunned to find this facility provided substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 3.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
