Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it earned an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home fared well in the category of long-term care. In fact, we gave it a score of A- for that area, which turns out to be one of our most elite grades. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 80.22285 percent of its residents. This is a bit lower than we anticipated but still a decent percentage. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest category turned out to be its short-term care score, where it received a B-. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
The final category we looked at turned out to be this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its worst category we still gave it an acceptable grade of B- in our nursing category. Nursing ratings are based in large part on quality and quantity of nursing care. This place provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a somewhat discouraging figure as it is well below average. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
