Facility Inspections
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this facility performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A+. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home really excelled in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a score of A. Not many facilities performed more favorably in this category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are well cared for. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 99.61539 percent of its residents. This is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary deaths for the elderly population. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality
The next area we analyzed was short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a decent grade of C. Our short-term care scores are considered to be most important for patients requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The last category we graded was nursing, proved to be this nursing home's least impressive area. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in that area. This really is one of just a few dings on an otherwise strong report card. Nursing grades are tied to quality and quantity of nursing care. This place offered only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. While this facility's nursing hours were below average, it surprised us in a few of the qualitative metrics in this category. In particular, we were pleased to find that its patients appear to be suffering fewer pressure ulcers than the national average.
