Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
In addition to having a decent overall grade, we also wanted to note that this nursing home received favorable nursing marks this year. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a B. This proved to be the facility's top score. We looked at the licensure of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of hours those nurses spent with patients, in calculating our grade in this category. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Facility Inspections
This nursing home's second best category is inspections. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. It actually outperformed most facilities in this category. Arguably the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Long-term Care Quality
The third area we analyzed was long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B. It actually outperformed most nursing homes in this area. Facilities that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 96.31336 percent of its residents, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we rated is short-term care. This facility was awarded a grade of C for this area. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home. This figure was below the national average.
