Facility Inspections
Although this facility's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually received a very good score in the category of inspections. In fact, we gave it a grade of B for that area, which is one of our better scores. Arguably the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is typically best to avoid facilities that have a long list of severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's long-term care score appears to be one of its higher scores. The facility received a grade of B- in this category. Long-term care grades are critical for patients seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated only 52.980133 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality
In addition, we gave this facility an F in the area of nursing care. Nursing grades are mostly associated with a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is not a very impressive figure. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our final area, this facility really didn't fare well in this area either. Due to an abysmal grade of F in short-term care, this is really as as uninspiring as it gets. In determining our short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to create a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Based on its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this place is well below average in terms of its number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the figures we looked at. Frankly, this was what we expected to find. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
