Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned an elite inspection score. Its inspection grade was far better than its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A. Our inspection scores are tied to pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this area tend to have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

In computing our long-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. Once we concluded our assessment of the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

The next category we scored was short-term care. We gave it a C in this category. This is not a bad grade in this area. Our short-term care grades are arguably most meaningful for people needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. We were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
