One of the reasons this place is a quality nursing home is that it earned a very impressive inspection score. Inspections is its best category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility an A. Our inspection grades are based on several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do 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 labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to this facility's list of strengths, it also was awarded a high-end long-term care score. We gave them an elite strong of A- in this category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in long-term care tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are kept in good health. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital.

Turning to our third area, this facility also earned a score of B for its short-term care rating. This is a well above average score in this area. Our short-term care grades are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
The next area we rated was nursing. We gave this nursing home a solid grade in that area, with a C. While this wasn't on par with several of its other grades, it is nevertheless not the end of the world. Our nursing score assesses the facility's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with patients. This facility provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in some quality-focused metrics. We like to look at the percentage of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are indicators of the quality of nursing care, since superior care can reduce these problems.
