Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a great overall score, this place also received first-rate inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our better grades in that category, with a grade of A+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. This facility received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to be an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A couple relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
Among this nursing home's other achievements is its high-end short-term care grade. We awarded them one of our best grades in that category, with a grade of A. In calculating these short-term care grades, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality
Turning to the area of nursing care, this was not one of this facility's strong suits. We awarded it a grade of D in this category. Clearly, this facility performed much better in the categories discussed above. In determining a facility's nursing grade, we weigh the amount of time nurses are caring for patients as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we rated is long-term care. We awarded this facility a grade of D in the area of long-term care, leaving this as the nursing home's least impressive area. When nursing homes receive this type of grade in long-term care it is typically a bad sign for resident care and it may mean that the facility is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. We were disappointed to learn that this facility vaccinated only 78.47025 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
