Facility Inspections
We would like to point out that this facility's inspection grade exceeded its overall grade. This facility earned a grade of B+ in this category, which is a quality score. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically have few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
Building on this nursing home's list of strengths, it also earned an excellent nursing rating. We gave them an impressive grade of B- in this category. In calculating a facility's nursing grade, we weigh the amount of time nurses spend with residents as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a solid grade in the area of short-term care, with a grade of B-. Our short-term care grades are crucial for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we analyzed was long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in that category. Our long-term care ratings are more critical for those requiring more traditional services related to personal care. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is a very respectable statistic. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
