Short-term Care Quality
We want to point out that this facility earned a far better grade for short-term care than it received overall. It received one of our best scores in that category with a score of A. Our short-term care scores are presumably more critical for individuals in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

This nursing home also excelled in the category of nursing, where it earned an B+. Few nursing homes performed better in this category.

Long-term Care Quality
The next area we graded is long-term care, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of C in this category. For patients in need of a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 97.35099 percent of its residents, which is better than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Facility Inspections
The last category we looked at is inspections. This was not one of this nursing home's stronger categories. We gave it a D in this category. Since this data is collected by government inspectors, we tend to take this one very seriously. One of the most critical factors in assessing inspection reports is deficiencies. We recommend you scrutinize the severity of the deficiencies. This particular nursing home was assessed one category G through L deficiency, which rank among the more serious deficiencies. These categories indicate that the deficiencies found by the government inspectors had the potential to create actual harm to patients. Finally, we also need to point out that this nursing home received large government fines in recent years in excess of $50,000. This generally indicates that government inspectors grew tired after multiple years of failed health inspections.
