Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this nursing home really outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our highest scores in this area with an A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some can be relatively insignificant. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received an impressive grade in our short-term care category. We awarded this nursing home a better than average grade of B in this category. In computing our short-term care grades, we look at the facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This category is often a useful measure of a nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

This facility's second worse score was long-term care, where it earned a grade of just D in that category. This is a relatively poor score. Long-term care grades in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We discovered that this facility vaccinated just 69.202896 percent of its patients, which is several points lower than we expected. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best score in this category.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's least impressive category is nursing, which is the last area we assessed. For this area, we gave this nursing home a grade of just D. When computing a facility's nursing score, we look at the number of hours nurses are caring for patients and the level of skill of those nurses.
