Facility Inspections
On top of being a quality facility overall, this facility really excelled in our inspections category, where it received an A. Few facilities fared better in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's above average category grades came in the area of short-term care. We gave them one of our stronger grades in that category, with a score of B. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Our next category is long-term care, in which we gave this facility a grade of B- in that category. For residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are very important. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations.
