Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home received a strong overall score as described above, but we want to note its excellent short-term care score. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this category. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a sound measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. Nursing turned out to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of A. Our nursing rating focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses and the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day.

Facility Inspections
This facility earned a B for its inspections rating. This is an above average grade in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively insignificant. While this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we rated was long-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this nursing home a D in that area. Nevertheless, you shouldn't judge this nursing home based solely on this area, since it was given some high-end scores in other categories. For residents looking for a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. After assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to learn that this facility vaccinated 98.24561 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
